Farmer's Markets



Farmer's Markets have been keeping us busy. I've been going to three a week and this week it will be 4 plus a swap meet on Sunday. I took this photo at the Thursday night market. I sold a couple of necklaces and a postcard that night :) Last night at the market I had something marked $2.00 and a nice lady came over and demanded she pay $5.00 for it. Sweet! Most people complain my $2.00 art is too expensive so I never know what to price things at. Well, I best be going as we are leaving here soon for another market.

Muscovy Ducks

I love my Muscovy ducks. They are the best. I enjoy taking photos of them also. Apple is the Muscovy that traveled the longest distance to get to me. She came to me as a fertile egg all the way from New York that I placed in the incubator and she hatched out. Muscovy are excellent at pest control. They love to eat flies and other creepy crawly bugs.

This is Apple just after a swim session as she was flapping her wings dry.



This is Sky with her ducklings plus a duckling and a gosling she adopted. They are growing up so fast. They are now just over a month old and I need to get some new photos of them. The gosling is now much bigger than Sky but she is still taking care of it just like it was one of her own.



Beauty was one of my faves. I miss her. She passed away of old age. She was an old hen when I got her but she did raise one family before I lost her. I have her 2 daughters to remember her by.



Here is another of Apple.



And by now you are probably thinking enough! I love my Scovies. Maybe I will take some more photos of them later today but now I have to go get ready for the Farmer's market tonight.

Collage Art

I've uploaded some of my collage artworks to Zazzle here recently. I want to make some more collages soon. My scanner is not working so I am having to photograph them.

Here is one I made last year but just now photographed.



And one I made today and photographed while the glue was still wet and before a layer of sealer was applied.

And some others...







I sold the actual framed artwork a couple weeks ago at the Farmer's Market but here it is as a greeting card.
