This spring I was fortunate enough to have my art chosen for the Poulsbo Farmers Market 2020 season! My design will be featured on various items, including their market poster. I am looking forward to using one of the totes myself while shopping at the market!
Creating this design was very enjoyable and I feel so proud to have it being used in the community. When thinking about what to draw I knew I wanted to create something cheerful, and also incorporate elements of the Poulsbo community and market. There is clearly a strong Scandinavian folk art theme combined with details of market produce and even a viking helmet! The use of the colors red and blue were inspired by the Norwegian flag. Combined with the whimsical flowers and symmetrical design I think it makes for a bold and joyful piece of art!
The Poulsbo Farmers Market is a wonderful local community event that brings together local farmers, vendors, and artisans. Currently the market is being help at Vinland Lutheran Church in Poulsbo on Saturdays from 10-2. You can see a preview of vendors on their website and even reserve items on their fresh list! Now more than ever it is so important to shop local and support our communities.
Thank you to the Poulsbo Farmers Market team for letting me be a small part of your market this year and including my art in your community event.
