Pre-Shrunk Picnic Time!

 The Pre-Shrunk 2023 show is in full swing, and there is so much to discover this year! While a 4"x5" base size is common amongst each piece, there is absolutely so much variety! We decided to put together a wee grouping of the works, with the common theme of fantastic food. It's almost as if we are going on a Pre-Shrunk Picnic! It may be too chilly outside for a real picnic in Nova Scotia, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy these sweet and salty treats (and the artists who worked so hard on them) virtually! Grab your best pic-a-nic basket, and enjoy!

Let's start with the sweet! We've got a fresh selection of fruits to see, each hand-picked with love.
