Summer Peaches

15x11 watercolor on Canson 140 lb cold press paper done today, a Painting Friends still life challenge featuring canned fresh peaches and ripe ones ready to eat (photo courtesy Mollie Jones).  I love the blue and white kitchen towel, the white tall bowl and the sunny imaginary foliage outside the window.  Shadows and reflections of each shape cause bounce light to occur thus creating color nuances most people don't see.

I love the glowing peaches in this one Kay. I took a pic of my canned peaches to paint way last year and have yet to tackle them.

Woven Flowers of Passion

15x22 work is actually two identically painted scenes of pink roses in front of a house. The original was ho-hum boring so a few years late...
