Persimmons and Froggie in watercolor.

HI, Here are 2 Persimmon watercolors. The top one I did last year and the bottom I did last month,when I was looking for persimmons in the yard. I used Opera, my new pink.. very jazzy as my grandmother would say!, and Cad. Yellow Medium for the little tops I used Daniel Smiths' Lunar Black and Da Vinci Sepia. Lunar Black is granulated and so much fun..

The weather here has turned cold,we may actually have snow furries. I hope so. Sadie has never seen snow!! She's been very energetic today,and I've wanted to stay inside where it's warm. Stay warm tonight.

 love to you,Diana

 ps. It's my sister's birthday so I'll call her and sing Happy Birthday to her. My singing has only been loved or liked by one living creature. that was Dusty, Gran's dog! She liked anything!!!

    Gorgeous paintings Diana!
    It's turned very cold here too... Apparently we are in for the most aggressive winter in over 100 years... Not that they are right very often, thank goodness! :0)

    Pretty persimmons! We had snow day before yesterday. It was mostly gone when I got up yesterday though. But the wind sure shook a lot of leaves loose!

    Dear Diana - your whimsical piece the frog with the persimmons is adorable and your painting of the other persimmons just seem to walk off the page. Your combination of colors is wonderful and thank you for sharing them....we had snow and Shelby loved it - although she experiences when she was tiny I think she may have forgotten it and it like something new to her...hope Sadie enjoys it too.

    Great persimmons paintings. Bright and light and alot of fun. I can't carry a tune either but I love to sing mostly when I'm alone in my car!

    Both so beautiful, I don't like to eat them but I think they are pretty to look at, Thank you for sharing your colors too, you have such a fresh approach in both paintings. I can't sing either, not even in the shower.
