Picked Another Pepper to Paint

"Green Pepper"


8" x 8"


Oil on Panel



My final pepper from the recent raid that I made on the produce section of my local grocery store was this large green pepper. (I think it is a poblano, but I really don't know for certain). I plan to also paint this alongside some very red chili peppers, to celebrate the juxtaposition of these two vibrantly colored veggies.

I chose a decidedly warmer background than with my previous pepper pics, to make the greens stand out in this darker, "cooler" subject. I am pleased with the results in this exercise...but, tomorrow is another day...
