A nod to my dutch heritage with a modern take on a dutch baroque still life lemon. Always wondered why they put carpets on tables, not really an aussie thing. This would have been a bit more effective on a medium-fine linen instead of the wooden panel, the support being more compatible with the various textures. And yes, the lemon did roll off the table a number of times so ended up looking a little more worse for wear than in the painting.
