Sophie and I
went out for a walk
this very fine day
we walked as we talked
we had plenty to say
we passed by a sign post
that pointed the way
to Eggplant Avenue
we had to investigate
(we think you would too)
we spotted a dinner plate
with a deep purple hue
reflecting the image
of an eggplant or two
so proud of its plumage
we knew what to do
now it’s posing quite fine
(we’ll be done real soon)
we paint its design
first on one work, then two
and we call our new line
Eggplant Avenue

Bertie--so much fun to meet you last night . Eggplant and pear shapes often resemble the human figure--both very senuous and beautiful to paint. Love your renditions.

the surface of the eggplant is perfect. Love the sheen.
