Brushing By Progress


Depression is starting to lighten for me. First time I've picked up a brush in almost 2 weeks. 


Its only a watercolor study, no major details. 

I like the green pumpkin, but not in that setting for a painting.






The background is different than the photo I took.


The sunlight needs work, lots of work. I think I'll change the sunlight on the pumpkin so it doesn't look like it is cut open.

  7. I think sunlight is very hard. It's looking good. And I'm so glad that the depression is on the upswing.

  11. Jeanie,
    I agree, sunlight is hard to paint.
    Later I darkened the colors for contrast, bring out the sunlight. The green pumpkin looks like its a weird bistro. lol

    I love your fanny pack photos.

    I think next watercolor sketch will be just the pumpkin in the sunshine.

  15. I'm glad for you that you're feeling better and painting again. A study, a sketch, a finished work...all of it for me is therapeutic. Your delicate study is very light and pleasant.
