I finished the product shots (previews) today and wanted to post a couple more for you. This kit is so bright and cheerful. The real fun was eating the first fresh strawberries of the season while working on the kit and having snow flurries and sleet falling outside my studio window. Boy was that a strange juxtaposition of seasons!
There are several round frame sets with this kit that can be used to create paper liners for cakes or pies to rest on. We used this set for my daughter’s $125 auction winning New York Strawberry Cheesecake a couple of years ago and it made for such a lovely presentation. A very fun picnic set, scrapbook page or party decor could be created with the art from this kit.
This particular style of art is inspired by "batik" silk painting and is very detailed and time-consuming to create but has an ability to achieve a brighter, more powerful color saturation than most watercolor can accomplish. I have several other food themed sets with this art style that will be coming in the next few months.
I’ll have two more previews of this set coming probably tomorrow or Monday. I hope you are enjoying it and I sure wish I could pass you the strawberries and cream!
Yum-O! I love the colors & the style! I think I’ll be making something with strawberries very soon! I can’t wait for the kit to be available in the shop!
Love your strawberry set. You have done such beautiful work up until now so I can’t wait to see what you do now that you can actually see!!!!! Wow, I’m sure.
I got a manicure yesterday and went and got my hair done today. So I am just sitting here fat and pretty waiting on you to draw my name tomorrow. So don’t let all my getting prettied up go to waste!
Hugs to you always!!! I’m so happy for you.
Just love the way they turned out….they look so good they are making me hungry. Now I can’t wait until mid-June to go pick some fresh home grown ones. Great set.
What another beautiful work !
I love the colors.
The kit is just so pretty! Thank you for the peek!
I cannot believe that you had vision problems because your stuff was always so beautiful. I can’t wait to see what is coming from the “new and improved”
AJ. Thank you for all your beautiful work.
Beautiful, beautiful work as always! Now it has made me hungry for some strawberries that I just picked up at the grocery store. Guess I’ll have to go and rob the fridge now! Glad to hear your second surgery was also a success.
very nice the colors are so bright and vivid.
The new images are so beautiful, how could you possibly have bad eyes with such beautiful work you turn out all the time. You are just a born natural and can paint with your eyes closed (or bad eye site).

OMG Can your work get any more beautiful!! WOW!!!
love this style for the strawberries!! Kathy
Ok, my mouth is watering! LOL! I saw our first strawberry trucks selling on the side of the highway by my house this past weekend. They looked almost as pretty as your new set, AJ! 🙂
How about a strawberry bookmark freebie?
Yummmm! Strawberries!
