strange persimmon 7x5.5
My friend Pollyanna put this very strange persimmon in my mailbox at school. I'm not sure if this type of thing is common among persimmons or not. It's certainly the oddest looking fruit I've ever seen. Sold

Wow! Those colors really pop! Yep, it's a weird one all right. I love my persimmon tree. It gives me about a dozen fruits every year, which is just right. I hadn't seen one as bizarre as that before. What a creative tree.
I am an artist living in Northern California. In 1993 I graduated from
U.C. Davis where I took classes from Wayne Thiebaud, Dave Hollowell and Roy DeForest. I currently teach art at Chana High School in Auburn California. On this blog I have posted 1000 paintings in as many days. Lately I have not been as strict with my painting schedule although I still update this blog regularly. I want to do some larger paintings that may take me more than a day to complete. Unless marked otherwise, these paintings are for sale. Please direct all purchase enquiries to Elliot Fouts Gallery. If you are unsure about the availability of a painting, please don’t hesitate to email me.

Oh my...how gorgeous...
Looks like you might have painted a Pacific Northwest tree octopus.
It's orange, it has tentacles, and I don't want to eat it!
The strange shape of the fruit is a glaring sign of global warming! What else could explain this strange example of fruition?
Dave asked "What else could explain...?"
Ionospheric heating from H.A.A.R.P. could cause that.
