Unexpected Muse

Moldy Lemon

Inspiration can come from anywhere - a favorite book, a friend, an Instagram image, a new context. Today I was walking to my studio and found a lemon that had fallen from the tree in my yard. The lemon had the most beautiful mold patterns on the surface. Each spot and speckle clumped and careened across the lemon skin. I scooped it up and placed it on my drawing table and it served as my muse for the afternoon. If you keep your eyes open, you never know when and where the next beautiful moment will appear.
