I was looking around for a fancy dessert to paint and I saw this candy apple. It is a Granny Smith, dipped in caramel and white chocolate and rolled in praline almonds.
I fought with it some more. There were so many unexpected colors. I put different backdrops...red, tan, and my son's black leather jacket. It reflected beautiful blues, teals, and rose. I may go back to this painting later.
I am Mary Ellen Johnson and I paint food. I am from NJ, and now reside in South Carolina with my husband and two sons.
