Radishes

13x6 watercolor of a bunch of fresh radishes inspired by a trip to the local HEB grocery store.  This complementary color scheme of pairing red with green prompted a touch here and there of turquoise and of course white tipped roots.  No masking was used with this painting.

This is wonderful. Reminds me of pulling up fresh radishes from the garden.

Who would have thought that radishes could look so tasty.

This is gorgeous, and makes me long for warmer weather and working in my garden!
