Cool design.
Ande! This is gorgeous. I love it. See you opening day!
Bravo!
Wait. How do you spell "courthouse"?
Just kidding. Beautiful, as ever.
czar: you know thats funny you say that because when I lay stuff out words i know are spelled correctly look wrong. and often. I looked up "locally" - it just looks weird. and i needed a script font there and it looks weirder still
fishy: thanks, main.
lx: yay! thank you
hannah: i cant wait. im dying to hear about the "exciting email" you received!
This is gorgeous chickory dear, your poster covers everything that how-grown and hand-crafted stands for. I like how the water is falling on your cute little 'trademark'.
Have a lovely day, it is an unseasonable 27ºC, here today, rather warm for Autumn but lovely just the same.
Can you please tell me what breed of hen little Easter is?
Golden wishes coming your way.
xoxoxo ♡
P.S. That was supposed to say 'home-grown'. :)
xoxo ♡
Oh do I ever love this ... the colours ....
xoxo
Love this. Wish I could come hang out there! Love the symmetry.
It's wonderful. I love the reference to scepter and orb royal portraits.
Bwahahahahaha to Czar.
Beautiful.
"Scepter and orb royal portraits"????
Geez, I thought it was a reference to American Gothic!
dianne: I had a bunch of stickers made of that trademark for all my packages. They look terrific! A warm autumn? Maybe a mild winter then. thanks for your sweet comment. xo
faery: thanks - I always say Im going to pull back a bit on the color saturation -but I never do.
pam: c'mon! Ive got a sweet guest room waiting for you.
john: yes -isnt a crown a facsimile of the sun? and then the unlitmate Queen is clothed in the sun surrounded by a mandorla of flames.
moi: he got me! thanks moi
fishy: I didnt intentionally reference anything - but what are you gonna do? its a little bit of everything -reconfigured!
I get to be there! I get to be there!
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Ande, I love this poster. It's the best of the best--has everything that pleases. Makes me want to come to Blue Ridge and buy some radishes, my favorite food,(with butter, alas!)-- Your painting just gets better and better. YAZZYBEL
What a great poster! Really fun and I always love colours that are outlined or on top of black to make them pop. But my fave is the little birdie (chicken?) on the right getting the shower! haha!
Our farmer's markets are done now...hard to get used to with summer farmers markets just starting for everyone else!
I foresee a sudden rash of poster theft.
8:00 a.m??????
bwahahahahahaha.
The poster is gorgeous!
I love folk-art and this one just POPS!
BR is lucky ya' adopted them.
Luv the Guadalupe reference.
PamOKC, let's jes' drop by afore the pillow fight begins.
I adore this, Chicky! And why would you ever want to pull back on the color saturation when you do it so well? Happy Farmers Market season!
Magically inviting to everyone!
BEAUTY!
that drop shadow
really pops the point, eh?

Such a pretty design! I especially like the 'veggie dress.'
Hi All,
I have been out of pocket and see there is a crossroad here. I’ll volunteer to host a Haiku Monday Tuesday with a deadline of Midnight in Australia Tuesday this week. We’ll get back on track after that.
The theme would be simply BEAR – because I was looking ta them this weekend.
If that works, come join me at http://serendipitouswildmoments.wordpress.com/2012/05/14/haiku-monday-tuesday/

That is so awesome. My wife would hang it on a wall in the house somewhere. Come to think of it so would I.
Graphic design is problem solving actually and you have done one of the most outstanding jobs with this solution I've ever seen. I can just see your little stamps, it is so technically crafted and colorful it lends itself naturally to repeats.
Its wonderful.
Would be great on wooden packing crates too.
I think it's pretty gosh darn amazing!
Thank you everyone!! I appreciate your kind words.
I'm late to the party, but this is stunning. I LOVE the blue, the dress, the sunshine face, and the chickens at the bottom. I am so lucky to have your art IN my house! :) I honestly think of you at least once everyday ♥
I love this poster. Is there a copy of it available that I can purchase to have framed? and Mike L. was right -it is so YOU!!!!
Ande, what a perfect poster. I hope you re selling them too. love Mom
