FRUIT STILL LIFE BY ANNIE B.
Sunday Experiment in Light, 2021.
Colored pencil on Yupo paper, 9x11”
in a 12.75x16.75” light wood frame
The subject and inspiration for this piece came from the Still Here Still Life account. Each week, new still lives are presented for artists to interpret however they would like. I like to use the surprise in subject matter as an excuse to surprise myself with an unexpected medium or approach.
This piece was drawn on Yupo paper which, if you’re unfamiliar, is synthetic. Nothing absorbs into Yupo, the medium sits on top of it. This allows for minimal blending or layering and so each color is light, vivid, and pure. It doesn’t look like my other colored pencil work, it’s a little more abstract and free form. It was so fun to draw and I hope that sense of whimsical fun comes through in the piece itself.
This piece comes framed. All sales are final.
