"boo-hoo, apples make me sad"

GarandFan:

That'll cause some introspection. Or humor if you believe it's Adam, thinking "I'm in trouble now"!

HEY GARANFAN

Nice job. It was based on the Adam story, without all the literalness you might expect.

Terwiliger:

HEY JOHN

Gimme a hint...Is the "water damage" effect from dropping something on to the canvas, or did you actually get that effect with a tool (brush, knife, swab, etc.) of some sort?

HEY T

That effect is achieved with very loose oil paint and dripped turpentine.

Thanks...& one more question. You prepped the canvas in blue behind the figure & white behind most everything else...right?
