Watercolor - Still Life with Various Textures

"Watercolor Study of Various Textures" (11"X14", Watercolor, $85)

Another watercolor class piece. It's just a study but I think it turned our pretty well. This setup includes a cigar box, a Granny Smith in a ceramic cup, an antique wooden finial (which also appears in the first oil still life posting on this blog) and a replica antique fish-shaped whiskey bottle. I think the glass element came out best; isolated color patches that contain washy mixtures of dark brown and green to contrast with the unpainted white patches that indicate the reflected light on its glossy surface.
