Buy Art: Rain
April showers bring art
Summer trips to my grandparents’ house in Seattle thrilled me as a kid for two reasons: blackberry picking and rain. I can still smell the wet gravel and greenery in their quiet driveway where my grandpa taught me to shoot baskets on drizzly July mornings. In soaked jeans and wet ponytails, my sisters and I would hustle around the yard eating blackberries straight from the bush as fast as we could before returning to boring old sunshine in Laguna Niguel, CA. To this day, I can’t enjoy a store-bought blackberry.
