"Gardens and Parks" Jar by Elisa Choi


pen and watercolor on sketchbook

We got some empty jars in our garden. The colors are earthy but I splash this sketch with some cool colors for the shadow. I enjoy picking up nature stuffs that I find interesting. This one that you see drape across the drawn jar is a small thin twig with leftover dried leaves and flowers. I think it makes pretty accent no?

For some of you who inquired what paper I used on the previous watercolor painting, I use Canson. The texture is almost similar to that of tissue paper. :)

  4. Elisa, this is so lovely. The glass seems fragile and thin. The colors of rich earth! What a find, and what a beautiful painting it made!

  8. I like the loose application of watercolors all running together to form new hues. Beautiful! Spatters are just enough to add texture without overpowering the painting.
