Inspiration

One may be interested in the psychological effects of objects, not in their accurate portrayal, and may want, for example, to fill his canvas with a single apple so as to give it a singular power and presence,

1. Make it gigantic

2. Make It The Important Detail

Your painting may include many things but it may be the apple that really matters to you and that you intend to make matter to a viewer the very reason, in short, you painted that painting.

3. Alter It Slightly or Completely

You may decide to alter the apples look for artistic, psychological, social, philosophical or spiritual reasons, making it surrealistically weep, presenting it as solid as a rock as everymans fruit, giving it a wispy look as an object in Heaven, and so on.
