"The Orange" with MacIntosh Apples by Sandra Reeves Cutrer

"The Orange" is painted in oils on an 8"x10" artist board. Please contact me at sandrasart777@aol.com. 

I love apples, especially sweet ones, like Macintosh,Rome, or Jonathan.  I thought it would be fun to line up a few of my Macintosh apples, then on impulse, I grabbed one of my navel oranges. Right off I could tell which would stand-out, as in " take-charge" [of the painting], be the dominate one, and maybe a little showy? And, without a doubt, quiet different from the rest of the "crowd".

We are all unique, and we should be comfortable being who God made us to be. He gives us all the freedom to make choices- good and bad ones. He loves who we are (no,not our sin), and we should never feel the need to act like anyone else.

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb." Psalm 139:13
"Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows." Luke 12:7

Today, let's be happy with who we are, what we look like, and the gifts that our heavenly Father has given us.

Blessings,
