CONTENT NOTE: some goopy persimmon innards
All this art has gone to the toys' heads!
Inspired by Hieronymus Bosch's paintings of people inside fruits and eggs, my childhood toy Greeny Peany hid inside a persimmon today.
Six Photos: The Birth of Greeny
Two girlettes out scavenging heard the fruit peeping.
They took it home and cut it open.
They helped Greeny Peany out, and washed him.
The whole ordeal was a little scarier––and wetter and chillier!––than he'd expected.
He is resting nicely now, wrapped in a handknit sock (from Sarah).
