a burnt oaker at the farmer's market

watercolour, sketchbook,  about an hour or so ago; davis farmer's market, full of people voting no on measure whatever, buying fruit veg and watermelons, enjoying the september air. I hid behind my bike for safety. There was a local christian group of youths putting on a performance of the life of st patrick, or summink, or nuffink, no, but yeh, shuddup i aint not never done it or nuffink. I wish it were like that but it wasn't. It was very 'christian' ('oh well we're not really a church, we're y'know a fun place to chill and find out about jesus' one said to a prospective member afterwards). There were sons and daughters of hippies with big cars; one kid had really bad long hair in a pony-tail, bragging to his mum about being given a zero-sugar drink. Even the dogs would only chew organic free-range bones.

This is not burnt oak market, let me tell you. I'm a long way from home now.

Your farmers market looks a lot fancier than mine, but then mine doesn't have christian-claiming people. We did have plenty of peppers, though and they looked like a fun group--bright colors all crowding close together.
I think I prefer the peppers for company, even though they didn't put on a skit.

This is my favorite painting of yours so far! Great story too. I'm glad you gave the farmers market a try. It's interesting how when you're drawing and painting outdoors the stuff people say somehow gets embedded in the drawing.

Did no one even ask whether you had bike trouble, this time? Honestly. What were they thinking of.

No, this time my camouflage worked perfectly. I blended in behind my bike unnoticed by the melon-farmers.
