Dennis Wojtkiewicz's giant, appetising paintings of sliced citrus fruit

Slicing into all kinds of fruit and showing us a detailed perspective of their juicy interiors, Dennis Wojtkiewicz's paintings look good enough to eat. Getting up, close and personal with melons, oranges, apples and limes – almost with a backlit luminosity – each large-scale artwork encapsulates different fruit with a transfixed, heightened approach to realism.
