About the Artist: Chelsea Houston
โ€œThis whimsical festival starring a dreaming bunny orbited by dancing turnips, chard, collard greens, and peas came to me in a dream, of all places,โ€ Houston says of her illustration. โ€œOur Northern Nevada pink skies and lavender clouds serve as background to these delicious vegetables both in this charming bunnyโ€™s dreams and when we wake to marvel at our sunrises. While you might not find yourself nibbling a radish in your sleep or cuddling with carrots, youโ€™ll surely enjoy any one of the in-season fruits and vegetables on a brisk spring day.โ€ To view her artwork, visitย Chelseahouston.com.
