It was a scorching summer day in Somerville, but the crowds showed up, at least at the start of the flea market. It’s always fun to recognize familiar vendors and say hello. Long Trail Studio and I shared walkie-talkies to stay in touch, since our tents were across the parking lot from each other. My friend Lisa helped with setup, which, by the way, was a breeze—got to pull my car right into my spot! My parents joined me for the day, which was a lovely bit of company. I debuted two new banners! Lots of people were excited about my work, with my watercolor flower vase, new tomato painting in a 2x3 frame, and Paddington being the big hits of the day!
