Eggplant and Ratatoiulle



Hi, I just framed this little eggplant watercolor for the Pignic Art Show tomorrow. I love the color of eggplants. I use ultramarine blue and permanent rose to make my deep purple and I threw in a brush full of cad.red medium and thalo blue. I love thalo. Just a very simple painting but it makes me happy. I then made ratatouille for me for dinner, J. doesn't like it. Eggplant, tomatoes,onions, peppers, garlic, all stewed down and luscious. take care and see you tomorrow/talk soon! Diana

  1. Hi Diana, we just harvested lots of eggplant and good thing we enjoy it to eat. It's wonderful that you can paint your subject and then eat it for dinner! I made ratatoille last week and luckily we both enjoy it. Also we've enjoyed eggplant parm and this week Pat made moussaka - it was delicious! Hope you have a good sale day at the Pignic art show on Sat.

    Yes, feel free to paint any of the piggies. Let me know if you need the original digital file. I will be visiting my mother in NJ most of next week, so will reply when I get back to VA (limited internet access while away).
