Sadie Nabbed the Hot Peppers,Pepper Watercolor

Hot and Sweet.. watercolor in progress

Sadie napping. No I don't know how she gets in these poses!!

HI,  I've worked on my new little pepper painting some. Brightening the reds with some glazes, adding some shadow and started the black around the peppers.. It looks like fall I think. Sadie is napping now. I hope you are having a peaceful Sunday. love,Diana
ps. The peppers came from Monelle, she brought them by the other day, and we both started painting them. I was in the backyard when she got here but I heard a "NO SADIE NO!!!!" and ran into the front. She was standing there pointing at Sadie as she ran around Monelle with a bag of hot peppers dangling from her teeth.. I chased her around Monelle a couple of times thru the front yard a couple of times..and finally got them. Ok,it was because Monelle gave her a pig's ear but I was close.  What a dog... ha ha..

Pepper Watercolor and My Fav Palette

HI, today has been full of errands. I got home late and knew I wanted to start something new to paint. J. had bought me 6 gorgeous peppers and so I drew them. Drew the checkerboard and the shadow of the peppers. Now, you see that leaf there. That is pretend basil. Yes, the frost has got mine and so I'm just going to paint it as I remember.

These peppers are delicious,we had 2 on salads earlier this week.

 This is my palette. It's a John Pike Palette. I love it and would go out and buy a new one if this one broke. I've had it over 25 years.. It's like the timex watch.. it keeps on ticking.. well you know what I mean. :) Glad J.'s late tonite, I can paint more! talk to you tomorrow.Diana

ps. I  was wrong no puppies..
