Everyday Matters Challenge #24
As I have mentioned in one of my previous posts, the tree actually belongs to my downstairs neighbor. It does not have enough space to grow horizontally, as in a vineyard. So it decides to grow vertically and raids our balcony. One of the tips has actually reached another balcony, on the other side of our living room. It’s been growing really hard and I believe some parts of it has already reached its maximum length (about 20 m or so from the tree). Those parts are just growing new leaves and branches, but not fruit. The grapes are still unripe and very young. Hans, our neighbor, does not mind if we harvest the grapes hanging on our balcony, when they are ready. Very nice of him. So, Nor enthusiastically takes care of the plant daily. He acts like he really knows about grapes and the tree. Trimming and grooming it. I just hope that he does not overgroom it. Sometimes he’ll says, ‘Wow, it feels like we live in Provence’… Yeah, right! I told him that I needed some grapes for this challenge. So I would need to cut some off the tree. He turned and looked a bit surprised, ‘Are you serious??!!’ Of course not! 
. So my model is still free, very much alive and hanging from the tree, as you can see. He has about a month or so, before his time is up and then…
and then… then you’ll make a dozen bottles of wine or some grap jelly or..
just eat them but before you’ll paint them i hope…
well done, Evy!
Evy, I always love coming to see what you’re up to. This is a very elegant drawing. You have such a wide stylistic range!
This is one of the best drawings I’ve seen you do. Very delicate. Beautiful.
I modelled that grape, you copycat!
LOL!
. But before he did, he accused one of our cats of writing the comment. LOL!
Anonymous = Nor. My DH and he admitted it
To others: thanks for your kind comments.
Cheers.
