"Fully Popped Corn"


I always wanted to do a very small item like a piece of pop-corn and give it an expanded view.  Finally, I have had an opportunity.  Almost every night, my husband will pop some popcorn, and he will share half a bag with me.  One night, I picked up a popped kernal out of my bowl and started to study it.  About that time, my husband will look at me and wondered why am I looking at piece of popcorn so strangely.  I gave him an answer and told him that I want to do a painting of it, and his reply was "Yeah, Right" and "Do it and then talk about it later".  About a week or two, my husband found me painting this particular picture, and he told me that my popcorn looks too much like a monkey's face.  I said "See, here, I did it".  Yes, my fully, popped corn may have a monkey's face, but I can now say that I finally painted that expanded view of a tiny thing that is a pop corn kernel.
