i know this is old news, but i keep going back to it; mesmerized, inspired, in awe. something in the wood combined with the cream and red paints that takes this folk art so much into the future. also the handmade font, so perfectly raw and if only it could be bottled. i love this. this is what i want to be inspired by today. thank you hula for introducing me to margaret's work.
