i am quite sure that i could visit a farmers' market every saturday and sunday during the summer and still not grow tired of them. that is why i may have to go back to the lake oswego market this weekend. there was an artist there on saturday doing small oil paintings of the market scene. i saw a painting that i just loved, but decided that i really should be on a moratorium from art purchases and didn't buy it. except i keep thinking about it and smiling as i picture it hanging in my kitchen. considering how much i love the portland markets, i may need to reconsider.
I love these photos for their array of colour.
I am sure the painting would be just as colorful and I can imagine it in a kitchen.

me too. i love everything about the farmer's market. when you live in the land of winter, the bounty of summer is seductive.

Oh, yes. I think you should reconsider. Anything you are still thinking about days later is likely a purchase you won't regret. Ever.

I like to think purchases over. If you are still daydreaming about it in a weeks time, I think it would be a good purchase! These images are so beautiful and delicious looking!

I think you must go back and buy that painting. Art is good for the soul. Absolutely wonderful images, E! Excellent dof and wonderful colors. You should print and frame some of these for your kitchen. =)
