Sr. Maresa, Your painting is so alive! I could feel the texture of the skin. I could smell the sliced orange! Even the seeds caught my attention! And I loved the spattered bowl too! Thank you for highlighting one tiny example of the bounty and beauty of our Creator God! Sr. Melannie

Just beautiful! The oranges look so real! You are an amazing artist!
Thank you, Iolanda. So kind of you!
