A Few Figs
(16" x 16", oil on canvas)

The holiday season always brings a few special items to my local grocery store and this is week it was figs. Thank goodness I picked up quite a few of these beauties, as I cut open four before I found one with insides that I liked. The first three, while perfectly delectable, were too perfect for my taste. Lucky number four had a nice texture and uneven edges with the red centre bleeding slightly into the creamy outside edge.
