"Avocados"


8"x 6" oil on canvas, $100

So I was looking for a little history on the avocado and here's what I found: the word avocado can be traced back to the Aztec language, Nahuatl. Ahuacatl was their word which means both "fruit of the avocado tree" and "testicle". Think about that next time you're making a bowl of guacamole.
