Henia Flynn’s “Long Grove Bench” Colored Pencil Sketch on Paper
My boyfriend hanging out on one of our excursions to the lovely, quaint German-style village of Long Grove, IL.
Antique stores, confectionaries, bakeries, a general store, the Apple Haus where they made cider and donuts from freshly picked and cleaned apples, the Old Mill Pond (with a working water wheel) and other restaurants.. Most of these places didn’t make it. But the Irish store, Paddy’s on the Square still stands and has actually expanded. I hope Long Grove makes a resurgence. It’s a special place.
