"Use it or lose it"

My mom had showed me some weird shaped lemons from someones backyard that she stole. Way to go momma! She told me it looked weird and knowing me she knew that I would be all over it. I took it, held it on top my fingertips and slowly rotating it around as if i was taken by its resemblance to the folds on a brain. I looked to see that there was actually a whole bag. Looking for the best shape and best mental image of a brain, I had picked the perfect one.

 

I was babysitting at the time but it didn't stop me from grabbing a pen to see if the quick sketches would actually help me visualize if it would be possible or not. since the lemon had a waxy coat i Erase the pen marks easily with a napkin when making a mistake. Once I started I became hesitant of how the folds on a brain actually formed. So l just went with it always keeping a mental image in my head the whole way through. Once I was satisfied with half of the lemon I knew to incorporate a divide between left and right hemisphere of the brain. And so i took the back pen and indented a little harder on the divide between the two sides. Once I established the divide I continued the other side but made sure to flip it so my right hand was always with the pen drawing. When it was done I made sure not to look at a lemon the same ever again.
