Black Caps II Scroll down for details 
Description: "Black Caps II" A painting in watercolor by Elle Fagan. "Black Caps II" was fun and easy-to-do because of earlier works of the same subject. The wild Blackberries growing in my back yard, are sometimes called "Black Caps" but the berries put on quite a show, starting out white and then ripening thru yellow and orange phases to finally show up the lovely bright reds, raspberry reds, and almost blue-black. The darker they get , the sweeter! Easy to cultivate and a treat to harvest. And so colorful to paint! I simply placed armsful of the branches in a vase and picked and munched as I pleased, hurrying to finish the painting while some of the berries remained on the branches. If you observe art styles you may see that the berries and style in the earlier black caps painting are stronger and a bit heavier than this one here. When I did the first, I had recently been injured and having some dexterity issues. This painting, "Black Caps 2" was done a year or so later, when the injuries had healed and is lighter and was much faster and easier to do. Still, both paintings found happy homes - are sold.
