“Georgia peaches are genuinely loved in this state. Peaches are everywhere- on license plates, on signs, and at roadside stands (when in season). There’s peach tea, pie, cookies, cobblers and of course the peaches as they are. They are a pretty fruit and incredibly juicy. Peaches happen to be my favorite fruit, so I’m in luck here in Savannah!
This oil painting is of bona fide Georgia peaches in one of our bowls. My daughter said it was strange to see our bowl on my easel, as it was nearly life sized to the exact bowls we had nearby in the kitchen. There could have been more peaches to paint, but I ate them!”
