 This was inspired by Appealing Light, I thought why not make it look like the Apple computer logo? I wasn't sure if I was allowed to do "replace color" under the rules so I opted to use actual paint, who knew it wouldn't stick to apples very well...hahaha...I hope it goes over well.

Very nice parody. I attempted to emulate the same ribbon winner and failed miserably. I did another one instead. I juct couldn't figure out how to do the light. You did it well.
