Introduction	I am a woman who has dreamed of being a famous artist as a little girl coloring in her Cinderella coloring book. I have spent many years as a painter but also experimented with sculpture, mixed media, graphics...even theater...pretty much any medium where my creative talents could find a place to flourish. I have been showing and selling my artworks professionally now for over a decade and I never tire of being a creative force in the world. I take so much pleasure in the fact that my work seems to bring joy to those who observe it, buy it, or just come into contact with it. I have yet to achieve fame, but I decided several years ago, that perhaps God’s plan for my work was something more intimate, something cozy and special to be enjoyed in relationship with my audience.

Please describe how you could take the peel off an apple all in one go:

I have done this before with a very sharp paring knife. You start at the top and turn the apple as you work your way down in a spiral :0)
