Persimmons

Persimmons

6"x8"

Acrylic on panel

 I never see this type of persimmon in the grocery store (I believe these are Asian persimmons). They have a botanical name which means "food of the gods." I had so much fun painting these, although I admit I've never tasted a persimmon. I felt they lent themselves to a dark, rich background.

I love when I go into the grocery store and find produce with personality! Love the shapes and colors of these pears plus the stem and shadow on the red one really makes the painting work!

It's apple season...Even though you can get apples all year round, I still think of fall as apple season...had a lot of fun painting the bloom on the grapes!

I found these beautiful white beads and wanted to incorporate them into a still life...wasn't sure how to approach it...decided to section it off and play with the lights and darks...happy with the way it turned out!
