�She remembered how Billy always picked the first apple blossoms and put them into a tin cup for her. They made the house smell like springtime. Billy said apple trees were a double blessing, first for the blossoms and then the apples.� ― Sandra Dallas, Prayers for Sale

Frank, I enjoy your creations so much, I do hope your health allows you to get out and about for pics. But I never get tired of seeing what you come up from your creative mind. tigs=^..^=

Bright and colorful and original. As are you, Frank!

Neat texture and color play on those "apples".

I love apples like these, too. Great work, Frank.

I am tipping my hand in what is to follow.. however, I am not shy about sharing my inane thoughts.

So.. here goes..


To put you in the ballpark of my thoughts, and to refresh your memory.. have a look:

"Simply Hanging Around"

(/\ I just got your play on words for the title, with respect to it's predecessor below. :o) )

"Just Hanging Around"


So.. and this is just my opinion..

I like the tree, the apples, the bushel of apples and the girl. Very much so.

The background?

I feel/think that.. and simply put.. it overwhelms the other facets. Strictly on the note of the colours.

The pattern is fine (I know.. I know, how magnanimous of moi).


Food for thought, and nothing more in the above.

... ...

I was unaware that you were ailing, Frank.

I do trust and hope that you will be up and about, soon.

But, will readily admit.. that I have always enjoyed your illustrative works. This one is still a fav of mine and from some time back.

That said..

Thanks for sharing your creativity with us, and once again.. be well soon.

Well, if there's anything that can put a smile on my face, it's one of your images! Very nice.
