facoty girl twins blue and gold

I created this little print at the farmers market down the street. I have been at the market the last two fridays and have really enjoyed the experience. There is a great vibe there among farmers and few crafter/artists tossed in. I end up having a lot of interaction with some of the people who pass through. I have a chance to reconnect with friends some of whom I've not seen for a long time. Also, it seems that I have some kind of different sort of creative energy that I tap into in a context like the market where it feels some what like performance. It is as if I get a special boost with people around watching that lets me do things I wouldn't alone in my studio. It is also good to be able to let my art connect with people that would not other wise see it. I believe some thing mystical happens when people encounter art work that comes out of a life that is connected with God in a potent way.

I enjoyed meeting you at the farmers market this past Friday. It was encouraging to hear about InterVarsity's influence in your wife's faith journey. We look forward to seeing more of your art at Fulton Street!
