There is nothing like natural “sugary” and nature does it best! I love papaya, mangos, melons, kiwi, oranges and the sweet smell of flowers. There are some flowers that smell so sweet, it’s makes you think of sugar!
There is nothing like biting into a ripe piece of fruit and the “sugary” juice runs down your face and you try to catch it with your hands, to no avail! Now that’s a “sugary” life.
I am now on the hunt for a sweet juicy mango…hmmm…
This week, let’s try to enjoy the natural “sugary” taste of nature’s best offerings and that includes the sweet kisses of those you love, too! Peace!
what a delicious, healthy take on the subject! i love how you painted the insides of the fruit and not just the whole pieces!

Lovely bright piece. I love all of those fruits too and the leaves you have drawn look like they belong to my favourite plants – cordylines. I love how different leaves within the one plant can have different colours. Nice drawing.
