a recipe for 50 years of marriage

 this was not exactly my usual pen & ink 'family tree' drawing, but a watercolor painting on an archival canvas panel 16 x 20".
all of the information and text was provided to me by the family, and it was designed collaboratively in the beginning, until i researched some Polish ornamental design...then i went crazy.

a few more new ones

nothing fancy!

another new sign in the village; deja vu

the bottom sign is the new one; i painted the 'espresso' sign last year. the owner wanted BRIGHT,  and they wanted "shop" in huge letters! it's sort of obnoxious, but it gets the job done.
