This painting was done on completely wet paper, giving very soft blurry shapes at first, then gradually, as paper dried, adding more defined detail. This helps to fade out background objects, so the two jugs contrast in focus depth. The trickiest bit maybe was getting the orange streaks in the blue iris blooms.
