I'm so happy to see figs at the market, especially Black Mission Figs which are my favorite.  These look  more purple in the photo although the painting is darker with a deep maroon color for the figs. I have tried adjusting the color and it doesn't help.

Now that I've painted them, I am ready to cut up a couple of them for a nice sweet treat.

Brown Turkey Figs

Brown Turkey Figs

This variety is a copper to yellow color when ripe and is one of the most commonly grown fig varieties. We have two fig trees in our yard but they are not quite large enough to have a great number of figs yet. Fresh figs don't taste anything like dried figs, they are much better!
