Farmers Market #12



Farmers Market #12

7x5in watercolor  - still in process.


During this market series I found a fascination with
plain old garlic.

Artist Note.
In my last post I mentioned I had become fascinated with
the garlic and that led to a weekend of nothing but
drawing and painting garlic.
Above is the one I tried using the fracturing technique
I developed. I obviously pushed the colors, but that is
the fun of trying different ways of exploration. I have to live
with it for a while to see if I will place it for sale.
The fracturing is still pretty new to me in watercolor
and keeping paintings I sense something works...or doesn't,
helps me on the next one.
I completed another one in a very traditional method
which I also like and I will be posting that.

Below shows my sketches and another watercolor
in process.
