Surinam cherry (IF Garden)
Surinam cherry, or affectionately called Pumpkin cherry, grows like a weed in my garden. We've successfully groomed the bushes so they look like perfectly shaped balls. But then, they never produce fruit now. I found a whole bowl full of these fruit on a weedy bush out back. I'm so excited because I think I have enough for some jam. My mouth waters just thinking about it!

Thanks Kate. They are kinda tart so perfect over vanilla ice cream. Yummm!

Fantastic drawing and quirky subject. Great use of coloured pencils.
Very nice work!
These cherries are charming and the colours are wonderfully subtle.
Luv it!
I've never heard of this fruit. Now my mouth is watering. Wonderful rendering with coloured pencils.
Really well done! Just great looking!
Lovely. Have never heard of these - do they taste like tart cherries? Or something different? Nicely done.
Mine too! Mmmm mmm. Excellent rendering and so glad to see you entered this in this week's IF challenge!
Stunning work joan! You certainly know how to use those pencils!

Always excellent work Joan! The bright and vivid colors really make these jump right out at you! =)
This is beautiful, Joan! What an interesting fruit -are they sweet?
very yummy.
Love this one Joan, what gorgeous colours!
I see the drawing is really quite small though it looks large. You are really working the space. A very good still life!
Wow beautiful!
I don't think I've heard of this type of cherry before but WOW...you have rendered them beautifully, Joan.
