I've been painting fruit. lots and lots of fruit!
And with a little help from salt- they have some fabulous textures going on too!
These aren't like the realistic pears I have painted in the past. These are more of a silhouette/ decorative style, for which, there will be a tutorial or two.
Stay tuned for my Watercolor Fruit Series coming next week !
Is that just regular salt? I wanna try this :)
ReplyDeleteYes you should! I used Epsom salt here- you can use table salt, but it doesn't work quite as well as the bigger grains in epsom salt or rock salt.
DeleteGorgeous! I love the colors you used for the various fruit! And such a creative idea to use salt to add texture. And much tastier than pepper. ;)
ReplyDeletehahaha! Thanks Jackie!
DeleteThe salt effect is really cool! I especially like the pineapple!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristin! I actually used some white crayon for the pineapple :)
