Constructed Image: Painting the roses red



I was playing around with food for my constructed image, (carrot tulips, orange peel flowers), and when I started shooting the celery roses, I couldn't get the Alice in Wonderland song "Painting the Roses Red" out of my head. So I decided that's what I was going to do with them.

There's a video of them being painted, with the song playing in the background (not amazing videos but still neat), that I'm hoping to make ready for online viewing soon. Till then, I have the stills.

I was going to do three images of the other "flowers" but wasn't sure what I'd do with them to make them work as a series, I may simply do 5 of my favorite images of the two roses I painted.

For those wondering about how the song goes:
