SYDNEY: Changing colours of palette entails endless showers for an Australian artist - because she prefers to paint with her breasts.

But Di Peel, a mother of two, is producing what the market wants. Unlike recent winners of prestigious Turner Prize for modern art, Peel's works can do what paintings traditionally are supposed to do and brighten up a bare wall.

Her first canvas sold for $10, her second for $26 and currently she's busy with an order for 10 at a princely $89 each.

Peel, from Tasmania, freely admits that her chosen method doesn't allow much detail.

"They are more like abstract flowers," she told Hobart's Mercury newspaper. "But my latest piece, people say, looks like the Earth from space.

I wonder how large a canvas she uses.
