Big Red Bell Pepper
Well, I guess the title says it all!
I am now running out of produce. Hmmm...there may be one more green pepper in the fridge awaiting its portrait. Maybe tomorrow...
Anyway, I am trying to learn to paint these single objects with a very few brushstrokes, yet still lend some realism to the object. Basically, I am trying to master quick broad brushstrokes while working on these small 8" x 8" oil paintings, alla prima.
It is really fun to finish these paintings in a single setting. I enjoy the color contrasts of the strong red and green, as well.
