FOOD DANCE - GREEN APPLE

6x6 Oil on Panel

       $100.00 plus S&H


There is something about painting apples that is so relaxing and fun.  Green apples are my favorite to paint.  Green is my favorite color - at least for today!  Apples have a sensuous shape that is appealing.  And a big plus - one a day keeps the doctor away!

Here is a recipe using lots of green things and below is a little video for your Friday entertainment from the BBC about blackberries and apples.  Enjoy!
