Garden Artwork

One thing I have enjoyed this summer was experimenting with drawing or painting vegetables from the garden.


A string of hot red peppers done in watercolor. Well, I don't think I have quite mastered watercolors yet. I can't seem to control it, it blurs and runs too much.


This one was fun. It is a quick charcoal sketch of summer and winter squash. I just loved the shapes of some of them.


Bright, cheerful nasturtiums done in oil pastels. I haven't worked with pastels much but they are fun to use. I liked the bright colors of the flowers.


This one is my favorite and was so fun to do. Indian corn done in acrylic on brown paper. I don't think I've ever used acrylics before. I enjoyed it because I could be as detailed as I wanted and the paint stayed where I put it.
