Kathryn  Mililloâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  oil  paintings  express  her  pure  love  of  color  and  light.  She  paints  about  the  quiet  moments  when  solitude  be-­ comes  a  dear  friend.  With  a  love  of  language  and  graphic  design,  her  paintings  of  Vermont  barns  and  landscapes  present  a  meditative  in-­ ner  world.  In  her  still  lifes,  the  anthropomorphic  quali-­ ties  of  objects  become  short  character  sketch-­ es,  observed  with  kindness,  honoring  the  hu-­ man  condition.  Playing  with  light  and  dark,  color  complements  and  negative  spaces,  her  aim  is  to  create  a  visual  poem.

In  a  business-­as-­usual  mode,  the  50  artist/ members  of  the  successful  Brandon  Artists  Guild  co-­op  (known  as  the  BAG)  have  created  and  donated  a  piece  of  art  to  the  BAG  in  celebration  of  all  birds  that  cluck,  scratch  and  crow.  Expect  the  town  to  be  â&#x20AC;&#x153;paintedâ&#x20AC;?  rooster-­ UHG ÂżJXUDWLYHO\ VSHDNLQJ DV WKH DUWLVWV LQVWDOO interactive  barnyard  displays  around  the  village  for  the  summer  enjoyment  of  passersby  and  serious  visitors.  Store  windows  this  summer  are  displaying  small  panels  of  chickens  at  summer  play.  The  festivities  â&#x20AC;&#x153;hatchedâ&#x20AC;?  on  May  25,  coordinating  with  statewide  Open  Studios  Weekend.
