Farmer's Market inspiration

The summer youth program that I run is over and now I'm just wandering around the gardens by my lonesome to harvest what's left for the mobile markets on Saturdays. Concord grapes, yard long noodle beans, and potatoes are on the harvest lists these days. I'm also gearing up for some winter garden planning by attempting to follow a crop rotation while learning the Latin vegetable family names.

Drawn the Road Again

This blog makes me want to adventure to the west with my man, a sketch pad, water colors, and a camera. I know it'll happen soon enough. 

Anne Kipling

"The phenomenon of the moment is for me so incredible that it just takes over everything."-Kipling

She looks at things as much as possible without a preconceived idea of what these things look like. When she draws, the experience is always a discovery. When I look at her drawings, I feel the communion of energy between Kipling and her subject and the pulse of seemingly static environments.
