POMEGRANATE STUDY
Studio time and a sketchbook pomegranate study. These actual dried pomegranates were snipped from a bush right outside the studio...and included a small bulbous grey spider which crawled out of the pod painted in the lower right corner. I am NOT a fan of spiders..so he was wisked from the scene immediately! I went with paint straight in...and added some ink flourishes as decorative highlights. Another day in paradise? Ahh...You betcha! .:)
"Paradise is seldom recognized as such until it is considered from the outside.” ~Hermann Hesse
