Thank goodness for Pak Choi!
My art teacher could see that the plates of carbohydrates did nothing for me, so she got a couple of Pak Choi's out of her bag for me to paint instead.
They are such interesting vegetables with their curves and layers and varying shades of green.
I chose to paint this as a abstract just painting tiny portions and then highlighting the pencil with a fine liner pen.
I think I will buy some Pak Choi myself and paint a similar abstract again. I also hear that they are good in stir fries!
That's really good..would look great framed and displayed on your wall! ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood Choice! I like Pak Choi
ReplyDeleteI really like these.
ReplyDeleteGreat you can buy some, draw them, then eat them! perfect!

Hear, hear! I love Pak Choi in a stirfry. It's great to use as an alternative in bubble and squeak too. Topped with a nice fried egg that is! It's certainly an interesting topic to paint, not one I would have instantly thought of! x
ReplyDeleteI love that you chose to present these as an abstract, and that you painted just certain portions. The line drawing itself is beautiful, but your way of presenting it is striking.
ReplyDeleteYou're so talented, Simone!

I really like these, Simone. Simple and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!

They look so delicate!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend! xxx
I love this drawing!!! And yes, it's very good in stir fries!!!
ReplyDeletehello Simone
ReplyDeleteYou are a very accomplished line drawing artist - I really love the simplicity of this, and the pockets of colour really accentuate the drawing! The drawing itself reminds me of zen work, check out Frederick Franck's work online to see what I mean!
Much love

I thin I'd have chosen Pak Choi over marshmallows too. Wonderful drawings, Simone:)
ReplyDeleteWow Simone, this is AMAZING!! I've seen people pay tons of money for pictures nowhere near as good as that!! I don't know what it is exactly about this painting of yours, but it is just so striking and amazing... well done you!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit late seeing these but WOW! You are really good - love the pak choi (to eat already, but now to look at too!)
ReplyDeleteI a really loving these fruit and veg portraits :o) Love the fresh and tantilising green.
