Apple-cations

22x13 watercolor with colored pencil sanding into wet areas, a demo for a workshop I held in 2010.  Using a fresh apple, these three shapes were drawn then painted with negative painting happening in the background of leaves and stems.

I really like how you planned this one Kay. The negative painting works very well with this.
