A market in Elizabeth City today

Hello everyone today I did a show in Elizabeth City NC and got to see one of my dearest friends whom I used to attend her art classes back in 2000. Laura. It was wonderful reconnecting with each other after many years.




How I set up for today. 

The Tanglewood Lake Holiday Market 

I just love both of these. 


The little bags I hand painted and do enjoy so. I was inspired by several images on Pinterest.
