Welcome to my blog where I post recent photos of my work and journal about my life as an artist. I live and work in Tulsa Oklahoma. It is from my early life in the mountains that I developed a love of the natural world which now includes vast prairies and endless skies.

Persimmons
It is that
time of year. When it gets cold and grey out I look for a relatively
warm, sunnier day and finding one, take off into the woods. I keep my
eyes peeled for bare branches with little balls hanging from them.
Finding that tree, my search takes to the ground. The best persimmons
have already fallen. They are usually unattractive and mushy which
might scare off those who are used to perfect looking fruits and veggies
offered at grocery stores. That is fine with me because those folks
grab the pretty looking persimmons on the tree, bite in and find a
bitter tasting fruit that quickly gets spit out. I won't have to worry
about them taking my tasty treats. I have been eating them and painting
them throughout the last couple of weeks. This is the latest one.
