Art Discovery Tuesday – Feeling fruity

I know summer is coming. In my head, I know it’s true. But with the rain and just plain gray around here, it’s hard to really believe it. The sun has been out for a bit today, and I keep thinking…”will it last??” I sure hope so, I need to get outside more.

So in honor of summer coming, and the fact that my garden has just barely started to grow wonderful things I’ll be eating in a few months, I bring you fruit. These gorgeous illustrations make me feel warm, summery – and fruity.

I’ve extracted them from a book that was written in about 1830. Aren’t they gorgeous? I think they’d work great as stickers or layered on top of a postcard, or even in some collage. Let your imagination go crazy!
