Bobbing for Apples

Working on these collages for Murphys in Griffintown is a lot like bobbing for apples.  Each day I dunk my head into a bucket of cold fresh water searching for the prize.  Everything around me is forgotten, the apple awaits!  I know if I stick my head in I'll get something.

"Gramma Guy's" is no ordinary apple.  It has been a struggle to the unknown.  Challenging.  Rewarding.  It is in some ways the best work I have ever done.  Scary to think that.

I finished it today!

I got a crisp Fuji apple.  My favourite!
