"Sweet Season" for Strawberry and Canteloupe

The fresh strawberries this year are the biggest I've ever seen. The strawberry in the painting was the size of a small plum and twice as sweet. So was the cantaloupe.

I've just finished the painting and the fruit. Both gave me great satisfaction.

This is a "postcard" size oil painting (4"x6"). This tastey fruit is titled "Sweet Season".

Price: $75.00.
