Everything is ripening here in Osoyoos as the warmth of the summer season ends and the crispness of fall steps in.  There is so much drama in the appearance of a sunflower that I've named these two from the top left, 'Leading Lady' and 'Curtain Call', (light wood frame, acrylic on 8 X 10" canvas board). 

I can't stop painting these 8 X 8" botanicals--this one Tomato on the Vine 4, part of the series.  But I must stop as there are plums and plumcots and Asian pears, Honeycrisp apples ripening and I must capture their bloom with my brush.
