20May09 Orange Peel by Colin

I started with a clementine, peeled it, noticed how good it looked, got out my paints, started painting, ate a segement or two of the fruit to improve the composition, painted for a while, ate another segment, painted over previous parts of the painting where segments were missing, ate another segement, ooh yummy, finally finshed the painting with just one segment left, which I ate.

This original painting (acrylics on canvas, approx. 20cm x 15cm / 8.0" x 6.0") is available for sale for £195.00.
