Standing among the throngs of people I made a quick painting of one of the many fruit and veggie stands in the Atwater Maket. A lot of shoppers were blocking the scene, so I had to paint from memory and a few glances. There were tomatoes, strawberries, squash, corn, and melons. I noticed that they put the red items against a green background to make them stand out even more.

I made one last quick painting while Cilei and her sister were still looking around the market. It was very cool and humid so they paint stayed moist the whole time. The brick colour was mostly raw sienna (PBr7) neutralized with perylene green (PBk31), or brightened up with benzi orange (PO62).
