Pinta con confianza: manzanas en acuarela en diez minutos

Hi Catherine,Thanks so much for your feedback-you are too kind!As for your question of which apples were painted first, it was actually the first image (2 pages, each with 1 apple). It's so funny because I sort of had the same impression as you after the exercise but wasn't sure what to think.  This may sound weird but after giving it some thought, I think I was just trying too hard with each new attempt (maybe fussing over the wrong points, etc.). Oh well, just another line on my long list of things to work on! Still, it's always enjoyable to try.  I plan to continue working on this and may next try some pears I just got yesterday... Thanks so very much for this simple but valuable exercise. It was great fun!

Hi Sarah, I'm glad to know my impression was correct! I can definitely see progression from your second to your third attempt. That's good!!!! That top middle apple in your 3rd attempt is delightful.  And ooh, pears.. go for it and I'd love to see how they come out! Feel free to update your project again! ThanksCatherine

Hi Sarah,  Oh wow, your apples are fabulous! I'm curious to know if the page at the bottom was done first, and then the page with lemons on? Because I think I can see progression in your technique - am I right? The bottom page shows good observation, even with such quick paintings - well done! And you have got a lovely range of values, some really good dark darks.  In the page with lemons, the central apple top row is beautifully modelled. And the lemon in the middle has a really good shadow!  And the highlights in your lemons are lovely... I would love to see a little more highlights like this in your apples. But I'm aware it's a lot to ask, when you're doing a quick painting! In the top picture, the right hand apple, the leaf that lies on top of the apple is handled really well.  This has really put a smile on my face! Thank you for sharing it. And thank you for writing such a lovely review too, this is hugely appreciated! ThanksCatherine
