Sweet Ambrosia
(24" x 24", oil on canvas)

I had originally purchased these lovely apples to appear in my wine series, but after having them sit around in my studio for a few days I realized just how magnificent they were on their own. This simple composition hinged on creating an interesting pattern with the graphic shapes of the cut apples.

And to be honest, I just loved working with apples called Ambrosia, meaning food of the gods.
