Green Canadian is the name of a local fruit and vegetable store that we shop at frequently, it is located near Cavendish on Somerled Ave. I made it look a little better than it did, at least with respect to the fruit on display, they have a habit of putting the rotten fruit out front, but I showed some nice looking oranges and bananas using my artistic license. A fellow looked on and said 'Doing a drawing' to which I replied 'Watercolour', then I felt snobby. One reason I did this painting was to chronicle shops that are iconic to the neighborhood, and today, to test out this hot-press paper block. I am nearly out of the other cold press paper block, so I will try to use this one on the trip. I also cut a pile of Winsor and Newton pieces of my favorite cold press.
Green Canadian, watercolour 5 x 7" hot press, August 2021 (No 2771)
