The manager of the Coho called me the other day and asked if my work could stay there for another month. Of course I said yes.

I was recently asked to do a design for Fisherman’s Picnic. Fisherman’s Picnic is the big celebration that my town, Grand Marais, MN, holds the first weekend of August every year. This watercolor with ink is based on the design from the 1956 Fisherman’s Picnic button.
