Cherries.....

These are another two very quick sketches done while I was in Italy.






There was a huge Cherry tree in the garden of the house we stayed in, so I would pick a branch and sketch it before they got eaten. I found it interesting to see how they worked in different colours....

Fantastic, I like the cleanliness and transparency of colours and your loose style, nice works.

Absolutely gorgeous. So juicy. It they looked that good IRL, it's amazing they didn't get eaten before you were able to paint them! LOL! So good to see your work. :)

These are really fantastic paintings (I hesitate to call them sketches because they are beautiful just the way they are). I've enjoyed browsing through your blog. Wonderful photography and watcolors!
