Virtual Sketch Date - Clementine by Sydney Harper

5 x 7 inches, watercolor and gouache
This month's reference for the Virtual Sketch Date was a peeled clementine. I decided to do this one in watercolor with a touch of white gouache at the end for the stringy bits. I don't like to use masking fluid and gouache seemed like a better choice. I had fun with this.

Sydney, it looks like you had fun with this piece and he gouache was a good choice. I like the brightness of your piece. It feels very cheerful!
Thanks folks! I did have a lot of fun with it. I was kind of nervous about it at first but then I just jumped into it.
Way to go! Your fruit is light, bright, and fresh.
What lovely bright washes; the whole painting glows!
