Cherries, 5x7

Cherries have a perky personality, don't they? They just beg to be painted.

I'm sitting here looking out the window wondering how we can be having such a drought while other counties in Florida are getting thunderstorms. And why is it that the weeds grow so well in a drought? It's supposed to feel like 105 degrees today, and those weeds won't care. It's a jungle out there.

  2. Cherries really are such a happy fruit! They can't help it with that bright red color. Great job on these. I like the spacing and all of the blues and purples. Really terrific with those reds!

  3. Love the cherries. What is it about fruit that makes artists drool? The background color really makes the cherries pop.

  4. Yeah... if only the stuff we planted grew as well as the weeds!

    These cherries are so lively and cheerful - you'd never know it was swelterin!

    Beautiful reds here, not easy to do!
