Pomegranate

Oil on canvas panel, 6x6 -- SOLD

The pomegranate has got to be the most complicated fruit in this area.  We have a tree growing on our farm property--absolutely loaded with these amazing red orbs; yet, they are never ripe when I pick them and attempt to remove the innards.  When they are clearly ready for eating, the  bugs have already devoured massive quantities.  Any advice for next year?
