Completed Date: 11/16/11

Medium: watercolor

Description: This was one of my favorite projects last year because I had such a blast going on a little shopping spree in the produce section of the grocery store (looking for cool colors and textures of fruits and vegetables) and setting up the still life on my deck at home. I actually happened to use my great grandmother’s picnic tablecloth without even knowing it! By the end, I was pretty happy with my use of washes, and now that I see this again, it reminds me that I’ll have to pick up my watercolors again sometime soon.
