Blue Pitcher and Peaches - SOLD

Blue Pitcher and Peaches
12" x 12", watercolor on 300 lb paper
Sold at $40.00 plus shipping.

I bought gorgeous peaches at the Farmer's Market today, and bartered for this little pottery pitcher. The challenge here was to make the peaches look like peaches (with watercolors), and not oranges. Thanks for looking.

  8. Congratulations on lovely peach painting. They look very velvety, something that is particularly hard to do. I, too have a deep blue ceramic thing I want to paint peaches with. The complementary colors you used really work. Perfect!
