Day 5 - 30 Paintings in 30 days - Apple

Yesterday I had asked what fruit should I paint on blogger as well as facebook. I got quite a few responses - fig, pomogranate, grapes etc. All of these fruits are on my list. In fact I have a pomogranate on the tree in my backyard, hope to paint that plein air! For today's painting, I picked an apple from our neighbor's tree and used that to set up for my painting. At first I thought that it will be too boring to paint, but I actually had lot of fun! Here it is..
