DAVID CLEMEN: Hi, I'm David Clemen on behalf of Expert Village. And today, we are going to paint a wooden food tray. Okay, now I'm going to move on to the oranges, so I'm going to take a little bit brighter, darker orange and I'm going to put this over here. And, maybe they're navel oranges, so I'm just going to mix these two oranges together and see what I get when I'm on there, once I get there. And I kinda fill it in around the grapes, real loosely. Coming behind the pear. Oranges have a little bit of texture to them just like a grapefruit or a golf ball or whatever, so it's okay if I put a lot of paint and then I can just kinda come in and dab it to give it some texture. Like the orange has, it's very-I guess you would say porous. And then I'm might add a little black just for making some depth here and on this side. And then that is going to be painting the oranges. And then in the next segment, we will paint the grapes.
