One Persimmon
Vincent's Persimmon, oil on canvas on board, 5 x 7, 2010
My cousins Mary and Keith were visiting a few months ago and brought me some persimmons grown by their friend Vince. The others rotted quickly but this one lasted through my painting of it...my studio is a bit like an icebox that way. Anyway, I just finished its portrait yesterday (the leaf is still intact although the fruit is no longer glossy!)

A beautiful piece.
NB, we are so honored that "our" persimmon was immortalized by you so beautifully!
We love you and miss you!
Keith and Mary
