Growth and form

Here are some recent work in progress. Still enjoying the generous forms of cultivated food plants - complete watermelon  lidded vessels.
More recently I found this purple Kohl Rabl. It's a member of the brassica (cabbage, cauli, sprouts etc.) KR was developed for a swollen stem which can be be peeled, chopped and eaten raw or cooked.
I was fascinated with its tendency to spherical form, heavily interrupted by the graphic scars of leaf joints.
