Cherry Pitter

My first attempt at this project.

This project was really in its infancy at this point. I remember wanting to create a pile of cherries and one on top. The funny thing is that the background stock kitchen image was used because I was auto-signed up for a Photoshop stock photo subscription and was charged a cancellation fee, so I decided to use one if I had to pay for it.

My concentration was really on the top cherry and their expression. At the end, the cocktail sword came to me. Looking back, I should have also given some of the other characters swords. I learned how to pit a cherry using a straw, and that cutting up 30 + cherries will stain your fingers.

He's adorably savage.

Thanks!
