Rock'n Lobster and The Branford Art Festival

Rock'n Lobster, oil, 12 x 12" available 

This past 4th of July weekend was a busy one for us but we managed to squeeze in some rest and relaxation and ... yes a Seafood Fest for two! 
The weekend started off with a catering job for our friends Terri and King. Their son was getting married and they wanted a light fare after the ceremony. A Dessert buffet - cookies, fruit cups, fruit kabobs and chocolate covered strawberries.... for 350+ guests!
Terri did almost all the baking and Dean prepared the rest. He chopped and chopped and chopped!
​

One our way home, exhausted but hungry we stopped at one of my favorite places, Stew Leonard's. I grew up going to Stew Leonard's with my mom and brother when they started off as a small dairy/vegetable stand... and they grew and grew and grew! Now they have several location but I have to say., they really do have some of the freshest seafood in the area!

The plan was  just to buy a few lobsters..... but... well... Dean got a little carried away. Along with the lobster we had, scallops, shrimp, 2 kinds of clams, muscles and of course... he just had to get octopus! That remained in a separate bowl on the other side of the table!

I'm hoping to post more of my new work as I complete them. I have two shows coming up in October, The first is Oct 8th - One Day- Branford Art Festival on the Branford Green. I believe there will be over 60 artists under one big TOP TENT!  I'll post more details in the upcoming blog posts! 
Thank you for viewing my art -
Love, Linda
