This artwork is used in an educational coloring book for kids and it is all about learning to spell fruit names. The title of the book is 'Learning To Spell All The Fruit Names A to C, Educational Arts And Crafts Activity Coloring Book, Volume 1' and it is currently available for sale on Amazon, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XGSTRD1
I created a video preview of the book below.
This will be a 5 volume series with all the fruit names in alphabetical order, so I have 4 more volumes to create!
Crabapple fruits are much smaller and more tart than the common apple and are mostly red but some are yellow. Some Crabapple varieties are an exception to the reputation of being sour, and can be very sweet. Crabapples are native to North America and Asia. They are widely grown for their attractive growth habit, spring flower display, and decorative fruit. The flowers are fragrant, five-petaled, white, pink, or purplish in color. Crabapple trees are stiffer in form and spinier than the common apple. They are popular as compact ornamental trees, providing blossom in Spring and colourful fruit in Autumn. The fruits often persist throughout Winter. In cooking these small apples are suitable for making tarts, jellies, preserves, garnish and cider. Some may be too tart to enjoy fresh, but some are a refreshing and enjoyable combination of sweet and sour. Crabapples are an excellent source of pectin, and their juice can be made into a ruby-colored preserve with a full, spicy flavor.
Thanks for checking out my artwork!
