June 6 - Watermelon Slice
"Equilateral" This is done from life, again with the joy of the sweetness that is now in my throat. I think that the process to paint these is not finished until the object is consumed. Consumed by my brush and then literally. Watermelons are wonderful fruits, and this one is different in that it is an organic melon. I was surprised and delighted at the burst of flavor from this usually watery treat. I'm sold on organic produce for the intense flavors found there. And now I will look for these in the store! I think what we mean when we say "home grown flavor" is more truly the organic method of growing something. At least it is true for me. This is a 5 x 7 oil $100
