Rosemary Kienle is a realistic painter and sculptor who grew up in Piqua, Ohio where she maintains her studio.

Rosemary describes her work this way… “A great variety of animals, sea life, insects, flowers, birds, in the created world hold a fascination and sense of awe for me. There is an endless display of colors, shapes, lines, and textures in this world I want to paint and sculpt. My goal is to create art that enables the viewer to pause long enough to see and experience the extraordinary beauty, drama, or dignity in the subjects painted.”

Today that legacy continues as original members Raybon and Mike McGuire reunite to launch a new chapter in Shenandoah’s storied career. It all began when the guys got back together to perform a benefit concert for a friend battling cancer. “We saw how folks reacted,” Raybon says of the response to their reunion. “And then Jerry Phillips, son of legendary Sun Records producer Sam Phillips, said ‘You guys need to make a run at this. People still love what you do. You can tell by the reaction. There’s a lot of excitement in the air
