I painted the apple half in two sittings over two days. My original goal was to state the texture of the cut apple. I didn t anticipate how fast it would change and the rate of change increased dramatically on the second day.
It was challenging to restate the characteristics of the changing apple and more challenging to keep up with the pace of deterioration. I had to paint as fast as it rotted.
Throughout the paint process, the structure and color of the stem/core remained vital. At the start, the apple had seeds but someone, whom we will leave nameless, knocked the apple off the table removing the seeds.
Decaying Apple Half is painted on linen that s mounted on ready to hang 1/4 inch board. Ready to hang board has a nail groove in the back allowing you to hang the art immediately without using a frame.
