They're Baaaack

After almost a four month hiatus, guess who's back...


Above, I hold in my hand Preserves No. 100. I finally made it this week for my friend Alice, as promised about a year ago.

It reflects my sensibilities lately, to take an iconic object like the mason jar and give it a modern flair. Pop culture meets folk art, I suppose you could say.
