“Taste of Summer”, 8″x8″, oil on canvas panel, ©2012 Heather Hingst Bennett

I was a bad daughter and didn’t go visit my dad today for Father’s Day. Instead I painted. That’s me…always working!

My dad loves to eat his watermelon with salt. So, I think tomorrow I’ll add a little salt shaker to the composition and that one will be for him.

Watermelon always reminds me of summer. Especially when I was about 6 or 7 hanging out in my best friend Tonya’s basement eating watermelon after spending the day at the swimming pool. We always thought that if you ate a seed, you were going to grow a watermelon in your stomach.
