EDM Challenge #250 - Something I got for free
A few tomato seedlings came up in my worm bin after I had thrown some tomatoes out. I transplanted the little seedlings and months later, I have huge plants dripping with plump, luscious tomatoes, fertilized with my vermicompost, of course. One of the plants produced yellow tomatoes! I love when I get free stuff like this! (Transparent watercolor on Arches, cold press, 140lb.)

Delicious - the painting is great. It has a look that is really fresh and yet antique at the same time. I think it is the pattern in the background and the tones of the colours
I love the colours and the way that the pattern in the background echos the shapes made by the stalks.
terrific design and color - well done!
Glowingly gorgeous! :)
wonderful rendition! Food art is popular among collectors too!

Very very nice!
I'm so glad I found my way to your blog! Bookmarking it now. I love your style of painting. The background is a nice touch, and your tomatoes look very yummy. What a great free find!
I am stunned by the beautiful background design, absolutely love the green. The main focus here is of course the tomatoes, and I think they balance each other so well. Awesome composition!l
Yum! Congrats on the tomatoes and the really beautiful painting!
Wow, way to go!! And look what they have inspired!
Love your tomatoes and what great luck to find them! Wish I lived somewhere warm that tomatoes were growing at this time of year!
Love the reflections that you achieved on the tomatoes! I can just tase them.
I love the background and your capture of the light. Yeah for free seeds. We have some black raspberry vines coming up in our compost.
It's a lovely painting ... your compost bin is just the gift that keeps on giving! nancy
Great picture. Love the colors and shadows as well as the composition. A very tasty free gift.
Great painting! I'm off to watch this vermicomposting video.
Mmm yummy! Those look very yummy! :) Good job! I printed out the EDM challenge list--it's really good isn't it?? It's so hard sometimes to draw when you can't think of anything to do!!! :)
Yum! Picture perfect, perfect picture.
Very pretty...
Who would think that socks would bring so many comments and here we go again, inspiring us all with your conservation teaching us that a little trouble can result in great rewards - even if they are tomatoes and a great painting of course.
