come home, HONEY
My local farmer’s market is almost done for the season. Because the market uses the parking lot between the American Legion and the post office, it is only available to us from late Spring to early Fall. The worst of it is that it will likely cut off my supplie of golden goodness, local honey.
My work has prominently featured golden hues lately, and I’ve fallen in love with some metallic Japanese watercolors. I’ve even spent some time making my own metallic watercolors, using honey as a humectant. Luckily, my paints don’t require Mason jars from the local farmer’s market. Have you fallen under the spell of the glint of gold, the glow of gamboge hue, or the warmth of yellow ocre? If so, here’s a great opportunity in San Diego. Take a look…
