Granada by Erika .
A pomegranate should be bought while laughing
so that its laugh will tell you of its seeds.
How lucky is its laugh, for from its mouth
its heart is shown like pearls in soulful caskets.
- Rumi
Dedicated to my friend Jordan who gave me the idea for this.
Here’s another rather realistic piece: Fruit Bowl
Granada is Spanish for pomegranate
Medium is colored pencil on black cardboard
