Summer in the City

Well, the Fog has arrived! And yesterday it didn't leave until after one. I was glad I had my leg warmers. The Market has been slow these last weeks, but it's not about the money. This week I had a customer I hadn't seen in a couple of years. She had been looking for me at the Farmers market, and was glad to see I was well and still selling. I don't know then name of most of my customers, unless they signed up for my email list, so I had no way of letting them know where I went, and just hoped they would stumble upon me across the street on their way to the Market.
I also got to visit with my farmer friends at the Ferry Building. It was too crowded to take pictures, but I'm going to go to the Market on Tuesday and take some pictures for painting references. This is the time of the year when everything looks wonderful...and tastes wonderful.
When I got home, I had an email from the young Asian woman I met a week ago at the market. She sent me to her site, where she had some beautiful work. I hope it works out that we can paint together.
