I did this painting for no particular reason other than having a little fun with painting on a different surface - a corrugated box top. The apples were painted/drawn on the indentations of tuna cans. Then I saw a juried competition "Eye of the Beholder: The Art of the Found Object," and entered the painting. I was pleased to see it was accepted and also to see that the sponsor, the Maryland Federation of Art, used it on their promotional pieces announcing the show. Another lesson in the fact that art can be done on "anything." And also that art is indeed "in the eye of the beholder."
