It’s been awhile since I posted on here, but I’m crazy active over on Instagram if you want to catch up!

The first time I ate a persimmon is a strong memory for me. I was very little as I watched my mom slice into the skin, it was extra ripe and juicy. She handed me the slice and we each took a bite, and the most unique flavor and texture exploded in my mouth. Her smile was big and kind as she said, “On Tu Bishvat we always try something new.”

As an exchange student in Denmark I discovered that one of my favorite fruits, the persimmon, was actually named sharonfrugt — literally “Sharon Fruit” in English! I had to learn more about this delicious juicy treat. That’s when I discovered that the Sharon Fruit is a type of persimmon from Israel, a sister to the Asian varieties that we see in most American grocery stores. I immediately became just a little bit more enamored with the unique little plant.

So when I made the decision to create a brand for my art, one that was all me and separate from my graphic design career, I instantly knew that the little orange Sharon Fruit was where to start.

Now it’s time to make some art!
