Fearless Friday, Fearless Food Favorites
Flowers are my favorite thing to paint
I think my second favorite thing to paint is food
Last week we painted a slice of Cherry Pie
which prompted me to look back at other paintings
I’ve done of food~

LOVE all of these–but the wine and cheese drawing tops the list, and of course those peaches at the top– they ARE GEORGIA peaches, right?! Seriously, you are so gifted and I always enjoy ALL of your beautiful renditions! Hope you and yours are gearing up for (and have) a fabulous fourth. Georgia Gal
Thank you Georgia Gal, you are so sweet! We’re heading to the beach for the 4th, can’t wait! Happy 4th to you too!

You are brave and fearless in trying (successfully) so many different mediums! It is amazing what you can do with food.
Thank you Linda, as you can see, I enjoy painting food 🙂
I always enjoy your posts on painting, and admire your talent. Despite how easy you make it look in some of your tutorials, I can personally attest that it is not. Of all of the photos of your work that you have shown here, I must say I am over the moon with that wine and cheese painting. So pretty!
Thank you so much Pattie. I framed it and it’s on a shelf near the bar area of my house.
Well of course I love all of these because I love all your art. But I especially love the wine and cheese painting. I might have to check out that tutorial. As you know, I’m most fond of both!
haha, thanks Jeanie!
Your watercolors are fantastic, Jenna! Super cute post!

I love your paintings – and tutorials. Thanks so much!
I’m so glad, Happy painting!
