Botanical Illustration using Colored Pencil. Art Shows and Exhibits. Thursday, March 27, 2014. SBA Assignment #8 Composition - Vegetable Study. Assignment #8 Vegetable Study. The first question you ask is "Why use a Tomato, it's a Fruit". And yes, you are correct. The SBA allows us to use a tomato as a fruit or vegetable since it is used as a vegetable in salads. So, no points lost there! Claurina', 'Montenegro', 'Tomawah'. Once I got as much drawn as I could I went on a tour of Houwelings Tomatoes.
