Watermelon Face

I can remember way back when.........drawing class, where we we're learning about color and composition. One of the students complained to the teacher about how such a boring subject could never become an interesting drawing. To which the teacher replied "Its the artist's job to make the subject interesting".
I never forgot that. Sometimes I purposely try a really simple subject, just to see if I can "make it interesting". That's what was behind "Watermelon" 11 x 14. I like the red and green complimentary color scheme, and this subject really lends itself to playing that up.
So I dedicate this one to you........."Watermelon Face"..............as old Uncle Bill used to call ya..
