An Apple A Day Painting

This was the first painting in a series that later came to be known as Queer Fruit. The canvas was recycled from a simple and dull still life painting I had done while studying in college. I was whiting out the entire canvas, its vases and draperies, to start with a fresh new work. But I felt so proud of how well I had painted the apple that I couldn't bring myself to white it out. So the apple remained and the androgynous figure with its cool attitude and sexual tease came to follow. My Queer Fruits search for the grey area between commonly accepted binaries such as masculine/feminine, dominant/submissive, gay/straight, pure/dirty, normal/aberrant. The texture is varied with a mix of drawing and painting mediums. It is a thin lightweight canvas that includes 2 D-rings and a hanging wire on the back. No frame necessary; it can easily hang directly on your wall.
