Art friday: S is for strawberries
One of my readers (Mary) loves strawberries so I am going to dedicate todays art friday to the humble but very delicious strawberry (best eaten with a dollop of thickened fresh cream).
Just for you Mary.
Art Friday: Strawberries
You might feel rather hungry by the end of this delectable collection of strawberries.
Poetry and music are very good friends.
Like mummies and daddies and
strawberries and cream - they go together.

Happy art friday-such a beautiful post to start my day
ReplyDeleteGlad these brought you joy and perhaps some hunger!!!
DeleteYep! Most definitely hungry now. I love fresh strawberries and now I can't wait to go picking mmmmm
ReplyDeleteNothing nicer than fresh berries - I wonder why we all find them so inviting - they do look so cheerful looking:))
DeleteHave a wonderful weekend.
Jo, I think the one with the cream is raspberries. ☺ I prefer raspberries to strawberries so my eyes lit up! Or maybe I need new glasses. Either way I am now drooling!
ReplyDeleteYes, they are raspberries, I think I was a bit carried away by a bowl of berries and cream. When I went to the markets on Friday evening I bought a punnet of raspberries to make into a crumble this evening - this must have got my brain going!!
DeleteMiss Dolly shares her aunt's love of strawberries!! :) She has quite a collection of fabric with strawberry prints.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely pieces of art - strawberries are a very delicious and bright fruit! :) I think fruit in general is very cheerful-looking!
There is something very joyful about strawberries, not sure if its the happy redness of them or their cute shape. I also think cherries look lovely (not that I like to eat them)
DeleteSimply wonderful. My favourite one is the birds.
ReplyDeleteI like that one too!! Have a lovely weekend.
DeleteI love these pics, Jo :-)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
Thanks Kath:)) You too have a lovely weekend.
DeleteI never had strawberries but your pictures are making my mouth watery
ReplyDeleteNothing beats fresh strawberries and cream on a hot summers day!
