CHALLENGE: Mid-Canvas Void

Use the grid template below to create an image. However, the middle section of the canvas (the magenta part) must stay one single solid colour. Any colour is fine; it doesn't need to be magenta. (I think we've already had http://www.pixeljoint.com/pixels/challenge_item.asp?id=1118 - enough magenta anyway!)

The theme for this challenge is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit - fruit. Any type of real-life fruit, and any way of presenting the theme is fine, just as long as it clearly adheres to the theme of fruit.

Canvas Size - Use template:



Colours - Unrestricted. Keep in mind though, that the middle section must only be one colour.
Transparency - No.
Animation - No.

Eek, I think I need to more clearly specify that it doesn't need to be magenta. The middle colour can be absolutely anything you want - green, orange, white etc...

Use gray instead in the template.

Well I really wanted to use a colour that stands out and magenta is also frequently used as a placeholder background colour.

Hm...so how about something like this?

Just want to say that the middle of the canvas doesn't necessarily need to be the middle of a fruit. The image just needs to fit the theme of fruit, rather than simply having one giant piece of fruit.
