"Tired Peony and its Vegetable Friends" 10x6 watercolors
This week's Daily Paintworks challenge is to paint vegetables from life. I wasn't sure how I'd like the challenge, especially using watercolors. I tend to think in oils when I consider painting still life. But I think the rich color transitions made this project fun.I was tempted to paint a person for the peony's friend but I didn't. So I hope I get humanitarian points for that ;)

I really like the colors used in this, I just can't figure out why there is a peony laying next to broccoli and garlic. :^) This really a pretty piece.
I guess the peony is not very picky about the company it keeps ;)
LOL the peony is there because I've been wanting to paint that darn peony for a couple days and now it's lost all its pretty petals so I figured I'd paint it with the vegetables anyway HAHAHA!
Well done, Tootsie! I am so very fond of your broccoli :)
For some reason I suddenly want a salad.
Thanks Tootsie Roll!!! My broccoli speaks very well of you too!
Nothing like fresh ingredients for a good salad thanks Maddyrose!
I love this painting and the fact that you have weekly challenges! I look forward to seeing more.
LOVE this painting and all the watercolors that Erika does! The colors here are absolutely wonderful!
