We are going to paint a watercolor banana from scratch in this real time video starting from the base layer to the fine detail. Fruit paintings gained popularity in 2018 as food illustrators flooded Instagram. If you have never painted a piece of fruit, this watercolor tutorial will show you how to paint a simple banana.

Establishing colors in your piece comes after you have figured out the values of your still life. Learning value will help you to identify which colors to mix later. It will also help you to train your eye to see shadows and highlights in the painting. You’ll see areas where objects overlap, touch, or cast shadows.
