Orange

Watercolor still life painting of a single orange and shadow.

Watercolor painting 9 inches x 6 inches

Please contact me if you are interested in this or similar artwork.

A very simple piece today. This week I have been spending my studio time working on a set of large paintings of Umbria and haven't done many small pieces.

This is another still life painting from my work shop in Italy, painted on Waterford cold press paper (my favorite!). Below is a painting of oranges that I posted a while ago, done at the same time, of the same oranges, but on Yupo plastic paper. You can see that the paper has A LOT of affect on the final outcome of painting. If you want to control the outcome, it s very important to have a vision before you start painting and choose your paper accordingly. If you don't need total control, experiment with different substrates!
