Sketchbook Page

This little watercolor ( 7" x 9") was painted on 90lb. Fabriano Traditional White cold press paper. It is one of my favorite papers as it has a softer surface than others. I really wanted to paint a pomegranate in watercolor since the piano teacher I take my granddaughters to has a pomegranate tree in his backyard and he has graciously given them fruit from this tree.

  1. This painting makes my mouth pucker. I know well the semi-sweet taste of the dark red pomegranate. My elderly parents have several pomegranate tree in their backyard. Nice painting!

  2. Thanks Brent! I felt the same way when I opened the fruit! My mouth watered and I just wanted to eat the seeds rather than paint them.
