Thank you for your visit today!
When buying fruit at the supermarket, they usually have these sticker labels that indicate the brand and price code:
When I get home, I remove the stickers and wash the fruit. But I noticed that some stickers are quite attractive! Don't you agree? I usually throw these away but maybe I can incorporate them into my sketchbook practice.
My sketchbook practice involves a blank sketchbook where I get to work on my watercolor paintings. Just so that I don't get overwhelmed by a blank page, I usually use prompts like travel journaling or favorite quotes.
And because we have a supermarket theme going on, my prompt for today is FRUIT.
Bananas, nectarines, limes, and a mango...I tried to get their coloring as realistic as possible.
And of course, I added the fruit stickers...TADA!
Just a little sense of humor and a souvenir of the current time. Who knows, maybe someday, fruit stickers will no longer exist.
May you draw some inspiration from today's project and turn ordinary things like fruit stickers from blah to TADA!
And speaking of fruit sticker labels, Anna Bond (owner and lead designer of Rifle Paper Co.) also used them for her line of home goods a few years back:
