Farm Stand

Here's a fresh woodblock print that's so very summer! In the rush to complete all the work for the show I ironed the prints between 2 papers to speed ink drying time! (Thanks Gretchen... she gave me the tip and it does work if repeated over a few days and no steam) Anyway, ink had to dry before painting could begin.
This print makes me yearn for the farmer's market... should be opening in a week or 2. Inspires me to grow a veg garden! (have only done basil and tomatoes thus far). I love wandering around those places with the warm weather, acoustic live music and all the colors of the stalls. Usually, the only thing I leave with are fresh flowers and kettle corn :)
My son's 6th birthday is coming up and he wants a pinata in the back yard.... we'll steal away today and start gathering party stuff while he's at school. The hardest part is finding a hiding place - he's got epic gift radar :) Happy hump day!
