Mangoes II

6"x6" Watercolor on Paper

These are the same mango "models" from yesterday painting. I wanted to paint a different version but they came out quite similar, in the end. Oh well, I still like them. I also like the reflection of the fruits on the inside and rim of the navy blue bowl - a Japanese Tobe pottery.

Peaches Trio

Peaches Trio

6.5" x 10" Watercolor on Arches cold pressed paper

This is, yet, another one of my peach series. Tomorrow, hopefully, there will be juicy mangoes that I got at the market, yesterday. I loved painting peaches, so, I'm sure I shall be coming back to this subject.

I had this painting done by Friday but did not get a chance to post it until today - there was so much going on with daughter's school and after school activities. Beautiful sunny day Saturday: perfect for a kermesse, seeing old friends, sharing stories and eating cool fresh strawberries! Sunday has been very relaxing for me - I hope you are enjoying it too!

This week, I'm commited to painting these wonderfully fuzzy peaches. They have such beautiful colors and you would think they are ripe. But, looks can be deceiving - they are pretty sour!

Have a wonderful day!

Peaches in the Afternoon Sun

Peaches in Afternoon Sun

6"x6" Watercolor on Arches Paper

These peaches looked so warm and fuzzy in the afternoon sun on my kitchen counter, they inspired me so. The plate was handbuilt and fired by yours truly, several years ago when I took pottery in Tokyo. The color of the plate is not as bright as it is in the painting, but the peaches made it look really saturated in color.

Today, I joined a group of ladies to visit the private garden and home of a remarkable lady who lives on the lake, near my house. She has the most beautiful home (and garden) I have ever visited and the most joyful and generous spirit. We also joked that she must have a direct telephone line with God himself because after a couple of weeks of rain, today we had the most perfect weather. It was a perfectly sunny weather for being outdoors, to see old friends, to meet new ones, to drink champagne and to just enjoy the good things in life.

I hope you had a great day!

Peaches in Imari Bowl

Peaches in Imari Bowl

6"x6" Watercolor on paper

I started a series of peach paintings and here's the first one. I wonder how many I can make. I have been working on some flowers, as well, but they are more time consuming and I need longer than a day to finish. On the other hand, fruits and vegies are so much easier, if not faster, to paint!
