Passion fruit still life 16” x12” oil on canvas

The passion fruit in a red bowl (the long wait).  

Two years in the ground and all of a sudden you have a vine covering the phone polls and wires with colorful flowers turning into beautiful globes of greens, yellows and purples.

Yes, you have to wait for this perfectly gorgeous purple color to fade and have it shrivel up! When the passionfruit is ready it is super good but you have to wait.

This is painting about how to wait patiently for the fruit to age and long after the pears and the grapes were gone, the passion fruit rewards with its delicious treat.
