Hey Y’all! Sorry the late post, but I have been busy on the farm so to speak.
I am NOT at Riverside Artswalk tonight. I’m sad that I’m not there, but I’m busy working away at making more goodies for all of you in time for the final weekend of the Escondido Renaissance Faire!
Hope to see you there ❤️

Tonight you can find us at the Artists on Main Showcase at the Riverside Artswalk, then we will be heading north to the Tulare County Renaissance Festival for two weekends!

Tonight is Riverside Artswalk! And if it rains, I will still be there!
You can find me with what I can carry in my bag of holding at Back To The Grind. And as always, I will have my instruments with me and I will be doing live demonstrations. Hope to see you there ❤️
