I painted this along with the blog Different Strokes from Different Folks hosted by Karin Jurick. This past week the subject was white pumpkins. It had kind of an aerial angle and there were 3 pumpkins but I found it tricky to compose. I decided to play and be real lose on hot press paper. Parts of it are successful. :)
This is a watercolor on Favini 180lbs artist paper. It's painted with Winsor & Newton artist paints. This piece is made for the "SPAM and trout" EBSQ Art Show. It's taken form a reference photo I took this summer while I brought my sons fishing in a mountain lake. We don't have SPAM here in Italy so I had to substitute the plastic tin we had just follow the "strange " title of this month's show. I'm not here to tell how much We all enjoed fishing and eating the trouts this summer, what I really didn't like was to have to put the worms on the hook.!
Watercolor ACEO of 2 ladies dressed as witches, guarding the pumpkin patch. Composition inspired by Gainsborough --guess he won't mind if I "boroughed" it!
