Method
step 1
Cut the clementine in half and leave it to dry out overnight.
step 2
Paint a thin layer of acrylic paint over the top of the cut-side of the fruit. Press the painted side onto the card, repeating until the sheet of card is filled with prints – you may have to reapply the paint. Leave to dry completely.
