Ah the fabled cherry—the poetic color of luscious lips, and just as sweet. It started out in West Asia (perhaps the Persia-Armenia region) and in two varietals from which all cultivated cherries are descended: Prunus avium (sweet) and Prunus cerasus (sour).
Sweet cherries had spread to Ancient Greece and the Mediterranean by 300 BCE, for Theophrastus mentions them. And Pliny the Elder (1st century AD) mentions that some 8 varieties of cherries were being cultivated in Italy—and that the Romans were spreading them as far north as Britain. The British, in turn, carried it to the New World in the 17th century (Beyond the huge crops in Michigan, California, Oregon, and Washington, American wild cherries include the chokecherry, the pin cherry, and the wild black cherry. Sour cherries have spread even farther north, and are a speciality of Germany and Scandanavia.
Today it is estimated that some 900 sweet varieties (ranging in color from yellow to black) and some 300 sour varieties are being grown. Most sweet cherries will produce fruit only after they’ve been cross-pollinated—honey bees usually do the leg work, carrying pollen from a sweet cherry of another variety soupsong.com

bevmorgan
This is stunning, Janis. I love how some of the edges fade and some are so defined. A truly beautiful watercolour.
Janis Zroback replied
You know how it is Bev, with watercolours… some days it is a big fight, and some days everything just flows as if it were meant to be… this was one of those days… I don’t know why, because I had no heat in the house, my hands were frozen, I was exhausted, and the furnace man was making an incredible racket while I painted… I just kept pouring water on the painting, he just kept passing by and saying “that looks great”... I felt like saying “no thanks to you”.. :))
In the end I was very happy with the results… it just goes to show that we can paint under any conditions…
Thank you so much Bev…I am really pleased you like it…
izzybeth
Janis these cherries are brilliant. And your luscious yummies are as well. Beth
Janis Zroback replied
I am so happy that you like this collection Izzybeth… they mean a great deal to me… thank you so much…
Janis Zroback
So many poems-
and paintings-that use the striking imagery of the cherry…for love, for color, for sweetness, for analogy, for spring and renewal. Thomas Campion’s mistress has “a garden in her face,/ Where roses and white lilies grow;/ A heav’nly paradise is that place,/ Wherein all pleasant fruits do flow./ There cherries grow, which none may buy/ Till ‘Cherry ripe’ themselves do cry” (Fourth Book of Airs, 1617).soupsong.comBradley Nichol
An instant favorite :-)
Janis Zroback replied
How very nice of you Bradley… thank you so much…

When he was by, the birds such pleasure took,
That some would sing, some other in their bills
Would bring him mulberries and ripe-red cherries
—Shakespeare’s Venus and Adonis.
Linda Callaghan
oh yes Janis…loooove those cherries! the colours, soft brush strokes with the melting edges is making my mouth melt!
Janis Zroback replied
These cherries seem to have turned out to be a universal favorite… the man fixing my furnace kept looking over my shoulder and commenting on the progress… it was not the best situation in which to paint, because he was making lots of noise, banging and clanging, the house was freezing and my hands were really cold… but I’m happy with the way they turned out despite the conditions under which I painted them…I am really pleased you like Linda… thanks so much…
Karin Taylor
ooo delightfully delicious Janis!!
i just want to eat them….now! :)

Yummo ! Good enough to eat. What a stunning piece of watercolour. The colours are so vivid in the focal point and fade off giving a sugary glazy drizzle dripping off !

Peter Zentjens
Wow, very beautiful work.
I love how you created a “depth of field” in your painting as the photographers say. Something I’m just about to give a twirl myself.

Lenka

earthangel
Mouth wateringly good!
I was brought up on a fruit orchard and apparently had some pretty gross nappies ( won’t get into that) – “No Grandpa I didn’t eat any cherries” – ( stained face, hands, clothes :) )

Joanne Bradley
Exquisite is a strange description for cherries but totally appropriate in this case! My favourite fruit of all time! You have been busy while I have been away Janis, and I am looking forward to savouring each and every one…
Janis Zroback replied

angelfruit
I am a newcomer to the site but absolutely love and adore this image. My friend has recently redecorated her dining room and was looking for something that would work with her colour scheme. Not only are the colours rich and beautiful, but the subject is so delicious. Thank you.
Guess if she’s good, I’ll have to buy it for her :O)
Janis Zroback replied
Welcome to the site…I love meeting new people…I’m so happy you like the paintings…thanks you so much…I’m sure your friend will trust your taste.. :))

Stephie Butler
This is really stunning… I love all your work, but this has that something extra…
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you so much Stephie….I know what you mean…it is one of those paintings that pour whole out of the subconscious…
Natasha Harsh
So what is Arches,if not paper? your watercolor is truly lovely.
Janis Zroback
“Not” is the name of the type of surface the paper has, and refers to the fact that it is Not rough and Not smooth…it is a term used by paper makers and goes back centuries…
I’m so pleased you like the painting..thank you so much.
Yvonne Less
Looks yummi!! :) Really nice water color!
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you very much Yvonne..I am glad you like it…
Holly Cawfield
You’re the one who did these gorgeous cherries? I saw them on the ‘most popular’ pages and thought they were fantastic. Now that I’m looking closer I am SO impressed! Janis, this is a stunning painting….absolutely gorgeous!!
Janis Zroback replied
Food painting is my main “thing”...I enjoy painting food in all it’s guises, but I also do landscape and abstracts etc… you will see as you go through the pages, I paint in many different styles, depending on the series I’m working on at the moment….lately I’ve been collaboratinig with Diette Henderson and doing painted versions of her photos…
I’m really pleased you like it Holly…thank you so much…
betha

Absolutely gorgeous watercolor- Purple is perfect color for shadows/negative spaces. Love the way the green stems are place moving your eye around the watercolr also masterful use of white paper as a drawing/defining form element in lieu of pencil lines. Just superb!!!

Marilyn Brown
Delicious is right. It’s making me hungry. It must be rewarding to think your paintings can evoke such a response in people.
Janis Zroback replied
Thank you so much Marilyn…this was one of those spontaneous ideas that happens to all artists, and the painting seems to flow from your brain out of your fingers….I had a furnace man here while I was painting constantly looking over my shoulder while I did this one and commenting, instead of fixing the furnace…
I like it so much that I put it into the gallery in Watercolour Artist mag to plug RB this summer…
