Everyday Sketches

In these troubling and challenging times I found it comforting, and distracting, to focus in on the subtleties of these late harvest gems from my garden. I am particularly fond of this pole bean. I grew it for many years with seeds originally from a friend and then saved from year to year, until the year I ate the last bean and forgot to save some seed!

Thanks to Ferme Tourne-sol, I am growing them again, and now know the actual name, Kahnawake Mohawk. Unfortunately spell check was turned off when I did the hand lettering.
