My daughter and I went to the Evanston Farmer's Market on Saturday morning and we found the fresh fruits and vegetables so colorful and beautiful that they inspired us to paint them! In season at the moment were strawberries, cherries, carrots, asparagus, green onions and more but with our paintings we took the liberty to include other fruits and vegetables. I hope this challenge inspires anyone who reads this to visit their local market and paint or draw their favorites. I grew up in a small town in Ohio and we would literally pull over and buy corn from the local farmers just blocks from our home. Delicious!
Note: My son did not wish to go to the farmer's market with us or paint fruits and vegetables, but he did paint a whole series of rainbows with dot markers instead. See below for one of his delightful creations.
Simple supply list for this challenge: water color paints, water color paper, paint brushes
