Well, they shared the poster I made on Insta and FB, so I guess it’s okay to share it here.

Eureka Friday Night Market starts next week. It’s a showcase of Humboldt County artisans and food and music, nestled in the gorgeous Old Town district.

I’ll be there, selling my cards & prints. Join us!

Alrighty. Just finished my 21st event as an art vendor in the 8 months since I moved up to Humboldt County in northern California.

I’m wiped. But deeply proud of my first year as a straight up freelance artist doing it on my own.

The Godwit Days Festival here in Humboldt county went well this weekend. Lots of birdwatching tours and environmental talks. Sold lots of cards & prints and met a LOT of people!

I’m happy I went! The folks there appreciated nature art in a different way than most.

Two side by side illustrated posters for Friday Night Market events in two different cities. The one on the left features a Night Heron on a textured canvas background of oranges and browns surrounded by stylized Art Nouveau embossed filigree. The second features a Marsh Wren on a canvas background of lilacs and greens, surrounded by a mirror image of the left's filigree. Both event posters are paired mirror images of each other, and feature text that delineates information about each event.

Had a lot of fun this weekend at Fig Twig, a big holiday craft fair extravaganza here in Humboldt County in NorCal. Had to pull off a 8x10’ inward-facing indoor corner booth for the first time ever, but got it done!!

Whew! Now it’s time to crash.

Yesterday an entire block in nearby Arcata burned to the ground. A local bookstore, a gaming store, a candy shop, an art gallery...

All the residents in the apartments above lost everything. One couple had just moved in *that day*.
