Apple Trio 2

Confucius was a chinese philosopher and sometimes I go back to his words of wisdom for some direction.One thing he said was "it does'nt matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop".Just keep going.
At the moment I am so drawn to these red apples and have this compulsion to paint them .I think I know a little of what kept Cezanne going!

  1. Ripe plums are falling
    now there are only five
    may a fine lover come for me,
    while there is still time.

    Ripe plums are falling

    while there is still time.

    Ripe plums are falling
    I gather them in a shallow basket
    may a fine lover come for me,
    tell me his name
