Tomato portraits
Medium: Watercolor on paper
Heirloom tomatoes are so unique. Every tomato is one of the kind, and I have never seen two heirloom tomatoes the same. They may be similar, but their scars or bumps grow distinctively. I always think this tomatoes has an individual personality. I also wonder if the personality is coming from the tomatoes itself. Is it originally there, or am I the one putting the imaginary character overwraped onto the tomatoes? Either way, its bumps and scars tells me their own stories while I’m painting.
Contrariwise, if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic.
