These feijoas are grown by my sister, so it made sense to draw them in a bowl she made too. I planned to take pictures as I progressed through this piece, but forgot to once I got going so this is what I have.
A simple line-drawing to start with.
A watercolor wash.
And then everything else. ‘Everything else’ included what you see here: pen and ink, water-soluble pastels and more watercolor.
This result is really beautiful, Suhita. Very inspiring!
