It was the first day of school last year when I sketched the Whidbey Island Ice Cream Company’s cart at Wallingford Farmers Market. Today I tried to take in a wider view along with the ice cream vendor. After spending a half-hour hard at work on that sketch and watching all the people walk away with chocolate-dipped ice cream bars, I couldn’t resist getting one for myself – mocha mousse flavor!

With that indulgence under my belt, I had to go work it off – by making a second sketch, this time of the flower vendor from a distance.

Ahh, summer!
