"Lemon Peeled"

Sold
"Lemon Peeled"
6 x 6 in
Oil on Canvas Panel
This one was a very quick painting for me, I started later than I wanted to but I'm glad I was able to finish it.  I wanted to play around with lemons and how their peels wrap around the form.  I kept the inside of the lemon concealed to add more mystery to the peel.  I've been painting lemons for a while now and wanted a different approach for this one.  Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Jonathan- what's with all the peeled citrus- I've just posted a peeled one too! Great minds think alike.
Your lemon has a zesty, fresh quality about it- love the sculptural feel.
