For our last watercolor class, instructor Doreen rolled out a sheet of white paper, emptied her grocery bag of fruits and veggies, and sat back to watch the fun. The idea was to concentrate on a single item, learning shadow colors and form cast on the white paper, and mixing shadow colors using complementary colors from the fruit or veg.
It was fun to see everyone's studies on the easel at the end, because we all had distinctly different views of each subject, even if we happened to be painting the same pepper as our neighbor.
The hardest one? That dratted orange! Just take a good look at the next orange you eat - you'll see what I mean!
