I painted these persimmons last fall but I couldn’t get them to look quite the way I wanted. Frustrated, I put the painting away in a cabinet. I came across it today when I was organizing my painting space…and was pleasantly surprised at how much the painting had improved during the past six months.

Isn’t it funny how that happens! I think it’s wonderful – love those complementary colors!
How did that happen? Amazing!! It is a beautiful painting.
Beautiful! =)
It’s a lovely painting, I love the blue plate.
Just like fine wine, this fine painting improved with age! Funny how that happens! nancy
You, ma’am, are a wonderfully talented painter.
I loved it all.
Steady as she goes!
