Afternoon Delight - Acrylic Contemporary Impressionistic Still Life by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Pat Koscienski

"Afternoon Delight"

20" x 10"

Acrylic on canvas


"Afternoon Delight" was painted for Lela Stankovic's Paint and Draw Together Challenge 6....Fresh Figs. I love figs and have 3 trees in our yard. Every year for the last 5 years, I get figs, green and hard, much the size of marbles. But they never ripen for me. So, to do this challenge made me think of sitting around the pond in the afternoon, eating fresh, ripened figs and drinking champagne. This will be the closest I get to that delightful dream unless I find them at a market someplace in the area, and even that is a rarity for this area of South Central Pennsylvania.
