I bought these persimmon at the wet market…I confess partly just to sketch them! I’ve drawn one before (see sketch No.69-2283 in Jan 2023) but also took it an an opportunity to test my new paper. It buckles a bit (only 220 gsm after all), but lets the watercolour mix fairly well and doesn’t pill…so far…so good.

Love the colors! The orange with the purple compliment each other well.
Thanks! They were tasty too!
Love this ….

What a delightful glimpse into your artistic process! 🍂
I love how you’ve combined everyday life—a simple trip to the wet market—with creativity and experimentation. Your attention to detail, from recalling your previous sketch to exploring the qualities of new paper, shows both dedication and curiosity. The way you embrace the paper’s slight buckling as part of the watercolor experience is inspiring—it reflects a wonderful openness to learning and discovery in art.
