Onion

Please be reminded that the colors may vary slightly due to a digital camera's results and depending on your monitor.

10"x10" oil

I liked the way the light hit the onion and the sprout bringing up life while the skin peels.
Painted from life.
Onion symbolizes the unity of many layers, the round shape symbolizes the cosmos and immortality, and the onion has been said to ward off evil.

Exhibited at Trumansburg Conservatory of Art Invitational 2008
