Wyeth's Place


Welcome to my tenth blog!  The writings are created by me, Jennifer Alfia DiMarzo and the paintings presented are the original works of my husband, Dean DiMarzo.  We hope that you may be able to join us each day, throughout the next year on our creative journey! Enjoy! 

The brick red tone captured my heart.  I yearned to soak in everything my brother absorbed on his Sunday journey.  I profoundly believed the architectural form beside me had a beauty all of its own.  It was a bit larger than the picturesque "Montpelier" barn.  My pride and joy retained a long, dark rectangular attachment to its right as well as a petite ebony bulkhead-like entrance to the south.  Its single white barn door stood out like a spiritual monument, with an embedded directional tool upon it.  I confidently slid the door to the left.  It was speaking to me, without the creaky moans heard on its cold wintery nights.  The touch of mossy green, assisted me with a silent go ahead signal.  Inside was much more than a stable.  There were piles of magazines, stacks neatly arranged of various metal pill boxes and small containers of vintage sewing kits that were barely scratched.  Eager to see what the upstairs held, I tripped over a bottle.  This bottle had some weight to it, the label still attached and it was only half drunken with its cap still in place.  My intrigue was bubbling over.  The final step was a little wobbly but I managed to carefully place both feet onto the wide sturdy barn board floor.  To my amazement, it appeared mostly clear and swept clean except for the back left corner.  This is where the sunlight from the barn's top window flooded in, directly showcasing a pair of angelic skates that were left behind.  I was drawn to their presence.  I couldn't wait to share this golden treasure with my brother.
