"Ten Minute Apples"

This was a quick exercise I did in order to get the "paints" flowing again...it's a ten minute challenge.  The object is to divide the canvas into four parts and pick one object to paint four times, for ten minutes each.
So this was a forty minute painting.  Working on a time frame really forces you to gather visual shapes and
values and get them down with minimal "fuss".  I'm aiming to do a ten minute challenge once a week.
