Green Apple Watercolor Drawing Signed LEH serving utensil but I love the relative

but I love the relative humility of this one (and its great silhouette)

Two hooks at bottom

Hand-thrown and signed simply with a Q (definitely not that Q) on the underside

Green Apple Watercolor Drawing Signed LEH serving utensil but I love the relativeI believe this watercolor was likely done as a school exercise, but I find it pretty transcendent, and very Japanese feeling in its perfect simplify. Lovely. Paper is 12" x 9 and shows an old horizontal center fold and tears to the top right corner edge and staining at lower right, but with a mat over it, cut close to the beautifully wavering thin black border of the drawing, it would look just right.
