Apple and Pears, No Bears, O my
A 11"x7" watercolor on 300lb cp paper. Reference photo is from Paint my photos. I used transparent watercolor with watercolor crayons. First time I used the crayons, they give interesting textures, but are opaque. I find them useful for highlighting, if I accidentally paint over my highlights.

Hello Karen:) What a beautiful painting. I love the bold colors. I've never used crayons myself, maybe it's time I do. The reflections are beautifully done! Great job.
