Tonight is the last Friday Night Market of the year in Eureka. It shifts to Arcata for the next month.

I made the event posters for both of them.

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.

I just learned my TV will hook up to my iPad, and I can share speedpaint vids and do digital demos during the upcoming North Coast Open Studios.

No hauling down the desk and computer setup from my house’s second floor. Whew!

HUGE relief!

A barn swallow has decided to live under the awning in my backyard. I'm assuming it's a she/her and have dubbed her Mudina. #bird #barnswallow #humboldtcounty #redwoodcoast
