Jujubes originated in China. Unripe jujube is green. As it ripens, it turns yellow-green and then red. Eat a jujube like an apple. Cut into 4 quarters and enjoy raw!

A is for Apple
I am creating an alphabet of fruits for children. On the front of each piece I am creating a design of the fruit and the letter in upper and lower case. The back of each piece has a couple of fun facts about the fruit and a kid-friendly recipe. The purpose of this project is to introduce young children to the alphabet in a fun, visual way and to teach healthy eating habits and encourage an interest in cooking from an early age. Please share any feedback! Thanks!

Apple, Bananna, Orange
This piece was fun to create. By outlining the fruits in white and setting them against a dark background, it creates strong contrast and an eye-popping effect. I'm working on a second piece with the same composition; however, it depicts the inside of the fruits.
