2022 San Diego Watercolor Society International Exhibition
"Ruby Harvest" turns a humble root vegetable into a vibrant study of color and line. The painting captures a fresh bunch of beets, highlighting the striking contrast between the deep, earthy purple of the bulbs and the electric, neon-red of the stems. The green foliage dances above, painted with energetic, loose strokes that suggest life and freshness. The background is a soft, dreamy gradient shifting from cool grey-blue to a warm dusty rose, perfectly complementing the natural tones of the vegetables. It is a celebration of rustic beauty found in everyday objects.
