| Lemonade watercolor 13.5 x 18 |
Who wouldn't like some? Especially here in northeast Ohio where the temperature is hovering at 90 degrees in the shade. This watercolor was done in class from items that were put together by artists in the class. I have since stopped the "everybody bring something" method of setting up a still life as the resultant composition usually contained too many elements for my liking. But this one worked out well for a couple of reasons. I tend to like an opposing color temperature as an underlying wash. This is more difficult to do with watercolor. And I also like mixing the organic and geometric shapes that create balance....a great yin-yang combo.
The difficult part, as I recall was keeping the lemonade fresh with ice cubes.....we were all melting.
