Two Sisters of the Tree Double ACEO

Description

Over the golden garden wall was an orange tree. And when the beggar had scaled the wall, he picked two of the full oranges, and peeled them.

And from the first orange there stepped a woman with thick black hair, glowing bronze golden as the sun, her eyes snapping.

And from the second orange there stepped a woman as pale golden as the moon at harvest time, her black hair soft as the night sky.

But that hardly made up for not having any oranges to eat.

***
I am a girl who likes her food. I was always left a bit nonplussed by fairy tales where useful things, like eggs and oranges, turned into beautiful marriable women. What am I gonna do with one of those?
But fairy tale women do get some great description!

A joined pair of ACEOs -- these two came from a bit of my watercolor paper that didn't want to let go of the glue. Original illustration done with colored pencil and watercolors on watercolor paper.
