I was lucky enough to be able to draw a string of Spanish garlic, as it's only the continentals that seem to string up things like garlic, various types of onions and chillies etc. This is a common sight abroad amongst most street markets and small grocery vendors. I always think it's add character to a place, with strings of brightly coloured vegetables swaying gently in the warm afternoon breeze.

My original pencil drawing is on ingres paper, highlighted for contrast in bodycolour (gouache) and a tiny bit of crimson coloured pencil for the soft tones of pink that garlic and some onions have. I have tried to give it a traditional feel, with at least some movement and form. Whilst the original is not for sale, I am more than happy to supply open edition prints of it.

The Open Edition Giclée print measures 13" x 9.5" (33cm x 24cm), printed on superior archive quality 192gsm paper. Supplied as print only and not mounted or framed. The Giclée print will be bagged carefully and supplied in a protective postal tube for safety. If you would like to see further photographs before purchasing, then please contact me via the 'Contact us' menu above where I'd be happy to send them to you.

I am always willing to accept drawing, painting, illustrational or design commissions (depending on current workloads), please feel free to drop me a line via the 'Contact us' from the drop down menu above to discuss your requirements.
