Published by JenkinsVMAstudio LLC. (A0.1264817)."Portrait of Autumn" is about a master artist setting out to paint a landscape of turning leaves as fall arrives.

This beautiful vocal arrangement is one of many pieces written from poems by Fairy Walker Lane.
Fairy Walker Lane 1890-1985 and the great aunt of Andrea Jenkins
Andrea had always loved her aunt Fairy's poems, from when she was a little girl and her mom showed her the original pieces of work on old manuscript paper typed by a typewriter. Fairy was more than a poetry writer. She lived in Tucumcari, New Mexico, and her family was responsible for establishing one of the original schoolhouses where Andrea's great-grandmother was a schoolteacher. Fairy was also an entrepreneur and owned a business selling hats in Tucumcari.
Andrea lives in Maricopa, AZ, and is a teacher for middle school choir and drama.
