Draw "A Neighborhood Store" EDM Challenge 85

The Mill Pond Store has been by
the pond side for many years---
a Vampire film named Moonshine
was filmed here in recent years
and every noon the mill workers
line up to buy delicious sandwiches.
The wild geese are often fed by the
water's edge and are a sight to see .
I recall one year when sea gulls
were all over the pond. Each day
as I get my mail I have but to look over
my shoulder to this store that is
now featuring hand dipped huge
wafflecones. In the back, there is
now a room to read the paper which
is always left there for all to read,
eat or look out at the views of the
Hollow. Years ago I painted a sign
for them with Canada Geese on it that
seemS to be the most
famous thing I ever did around here.

Very cool spread! Love how you insert a lot of details - like in the drawer post (very funny, that one : )!). The fourth of July one is beautiful. And "The talk" is awesome. It has depth and life and fabulous style - I love it!

They might think twice about the charm of the neighborhood if they ever read the stories your "group" wrote.
The drawing are awesome as always. I enjoy reading your explanations. Even though many of your sketches reflex things I have seen a hundred times they seem so much more interesting. I love them...

I must say these pages of your journals are beautifully executed and very interesting: covering the whole space of your journal's pages, much like the pervasiveness of your characters, locales, animals, objects, events, etc. in the spontaneously conceived "World of Winna".
Neat.
