Description
A Chocolate Orange was severely maimed in the making of this photo.
I was obliged to purchase two as they were on offer, although I only needed one to do a 'Pieces' challenge for Flickr.
Oh well....

The other looks just ready to eat this one makes a splendid image.

I just read an article about the coming shortage of chocolate. Destruction of a chocolate orange may qualify as a crime against humanity. I hope you ate the pieces to remove the evidence. Wonderful post work but as a confirmed chocoholic I find the flickr image personally more attractive.

Love this post work, haven't had one of these in ages, seem to remember you have to give them a firm bang on a hard surface to split the segments.

The flickr is much more tempting, food-wise, but this is a big splash, visually. You caught the spirit of these things---esp with those wrappers that just spill out from the chocolate. Loudly. (Those are loud wrappers they put around orange chocolate balls. They never shut up!) All kinds of line work and colony work in your postwork---I use "colony" a lot, re some of your postwork, but it fits for me. And lots of different hues. The center looks like a big spoke. And the pieces---with your complex colonized surfaces---look like paintings of some reeeeeeeealllllllly ripe cheese wedges. I love the flowers in the left top corner---your postwork makes them stained glass. (Well maybe they ARE stained glass, but what ever they are, I love what you did to them.) A big burst of a postwork, messy, very active, pulsing and very complex. You really get inside things, with your postwork. One gets the feeling, with this piece, that if they 'ate' one of those wedges, they'd jump up and dance like crazy until they collapsed. (Like the bite of the tarantula...) Terrific work, andrea. Btw, I'm skipping only so I can cover more than a few days. It never means that the images I don't comment on are any less, to me. Never. I love them all.
