I liked a legend about a quince. Is a Quince an apple of discord and the cause of the Trojan War? Another myth of Ancient Greece. The gods of Olympus didn't invite the goddess Erida to the party. As revenge, she palmed off a golden apple (of course it was a quince), signed "For the most beautiful". Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite considered themselves the most beautiful. So Zeus decided that the matter should be settled by Paris. Each offered him gifts for this title: Athena — military glory, Hera — empire, Aphrodite — the love of the most beautiful of women in the world. Paris gave the fruit to Aphrodite and chose a woman Helen, who was unfortunately already married to Menelaus of Sparta. The rest of the events are known to everyone: Aphrodite made Helena fall in love with Paris, Paris kidnapped the woman and stole her husband's treasures and hid in Troy, thereby sparking off the Trojan War, after 10 years Troy fell. Since then, quince is called the "sacred fruit of Aphrodite" or the “apple of discord” or the “golden apple”. I used high-quality watercolor cotton paper 300 gr/m2 and professional watercolor paints. The work is provided without a frame.

The theme of my work is the secret life of plants in a photorealism style. I like to find unusual plant angles and amusing compositions. You look, at an ordinary onion, and then you look closely — a golden fish. Or physalis — it was just a beautiful berry until it bent the sepals and turned into a bird. So one day, a grape became a centaur, and the chrysanthemum became a cocky young rooster. A similar story happened with cherries: they were ordinary cherries until a gust of wind turned the leaves into a peacock's tail.
