Radish Study
Another watercolor - NFS
September 1st and I am starting the
Leslie Sateta 30 day challenge.
The last one was in January and I placed too much
pressure on myself so this time I am going to mix
quick studies like this one with more complex
oil paintings. And...drum roll... if I miss a day I will
forgive myself and recognize the world
will not come to an end!
I commend Leslie for repeating this challenge.
What a great friend she is to the artist community.
I am sure it involves a lot of preparation work for her.
I know I will grow in some way for doing it. Thank you , Leslie
Over 300 artists have signed up which means I will
not be able to visit all the participants blogs to check on their
paintings but I will enjoy seeing those I can get to.

These radishes are SO beautiful, Julie. I love the looseness of this piece and wonderful color!!. I look forward to seeing everyone's work on the challenge!!
ReplyDeleteLove these little radishes Julie:) I'm packing up my studio and moving this month so I won't get to play this time. Can't wait to see what you do!
ReplyDeleteLove the looseness in this. Gorgeous darks that hold it together yet the washes of pretty color carry your eye around! You make me want to learn how to paint with watercolors- just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI am doing Leslie's challenge again also. Going to be fun!
You've got your fracturing technique down to a fine science in watercolors, Julie. The radishes look amazing and I'm thinking a wee bit of salt and I could quench a radish yen.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the challenge. I remember it from last time so I am looking forward to seeing what you do.
ReplyDeleteGood looking radishes:)
As usual...these are beautiful! I am going to participate as well in the challenge. Can't wait to see your work!

Beautiful painting. For me, the first thing I notice is how alive the reds and greens are. Mainly the reds...they just sing. Your study is mighty nice!
