Hydro Peppers

Last weekend I went to the Islip Farmers Market. The weather wasn't the best so I parked and sat in my mobile studio to sketch. I was behind the stall for Hydro Peppers. People kept stopping by the booth and I had to know what he was selling. When I finished the sketch I walked over to the booth to check things out. He was selling hot sauce and pepper jelly. I asked how hot it was and after being warned that it was hotter than what I was used to, I sampled the hot sauce. Yikes!!! It was so hot! As much as I enjoy hot sauce it was too hot for my taste, but if you like your hot sauce very hot...this is for you! 

30x30 Direct Watercolor #31 - Islip Farmers Market

I was still in a direct watercolor mood and did that method at the Islip Farmers Market the other day. 

Sunflowers

At the Islip Farmers Market the other day I bought a bunch of sunflowers. The vendor told me they would last 2 weeks. Since they are already drooping and have lost a lot of petals I don't think they will make it.

 

Islip Farmers Market

On Saturday I headed into Islip looking for a location to sketch and came across the Islip Farmers Market. I liked that I was able to park and sit close enough to have a good view. The booths were close together so I could put several of them in one sketch. The farm on the left had good corn and tomatoes. Yay!!
