Watercolour Painting, My Way :  Bowl of Fruit

 
 
Subject :  Bowl of Fruit and Banana skin.
 
 

A line drawing is available if you would like to follow along with this painting. 

 

Sketch was transferred using "graphite transfer paper" to Saunders 300gsm paper.

Size 35cms by 27cms.

Masking fluid (frisket) is then applied to the apple and the rim of the bowl to preserve the white paper for highlights.

For realism, make a rough jagged edge with the fluid, not a smooth outline.

A light wash was applied to each item with their lightest basic color.
