Listen to the podcast on Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Spotify | RSS

On this episode of the podcast, I meet Ashley Shaw Adams. Ashley is a Watercolor Artist living in Baraboo Wisconsin. Ashley talks about their beginnings in watercolor and starting a line of hand-painted greeting cards. Then realized that the supply and demand of that was easier said than done! Ashley has been hitting the craft markets and selling on Etsy for the past few years making a whole different range of items featuring watercolor artwork.

Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949. In every version of the game, there are a group of children that go through Candy Land. In the earliest versions of the game, it was a realistically drawn boy and girl.
