Geometric Life of Pear, watercolor painting
When things begin to get too real, I seem to be slanting over to the geometric side. These abstract pears can be viewed from two vantage points. Is the pear being filled with color, or is the vividness gets sucked out of it? That’s for you to decide depending on how you see the glass…

Single Pear, watercolor painting
When I just started painting these watercolor studies, my goal was to get as realistic, but graphical as I can. I think with this pear I nearly reached this goal. I really enjoy how lively this single pear painting turned out, it seems as if one can really see the volume!

Three Raspberries, watercolor painting
Raspberries are tiny, but complex little creations. Originally, I planned to paint several more, but I decided to simplify the task at hand and ate some 😀 They were very tasty, and I feel like I’m not going to paint any more of them 🙂 While this small watercolor is just a sketch, I do…

Juicy Pear, watercolor painting

Pair of pears, watercolor painting

Green pear, watercolor painting
I keep a bunch of fake fruits on the table for the times when I’m too lazy to get an actual fruit or vegetable, or simply can’t like with this whole quarantine deal. I just turn them and paint over and over, all I care about is the shadows on the shape ^_^ I might…

Star gourd, watercolor painting
Every fall, my mom gets me a small net of gourds of different shapes. I really enjoy having them around the house and to paint them. Here’s another gourd painting! I wanted to make my watercolor paintings more vivid, so this one turned out with fairly high contrast. Do you like when watercolor paintings are…

Duckling gourd, watercolor painting
One night I was set to paint some gourds, and… Doesn’t this gourd looks like an adorable duckling on its back? ^_^; I think with everything that’s going on, we could use a little of cuteness! I used watercolors to paint this little one. It’s 8.5 by 5.5 inches and painted on 138lb paper.
