Red Pepper

Red Pepper
5x7 Oil Painting on Raymar canvas panel

Just a big red pepper that I plan on using in an Arroz Tapado recipe. I'll have to start painting things from my fridge if I can't get more creative! At least fruits and vegetables are good practice and always handy.

With the lemon on the glass I wanted to capture the light that gave the lemon a translucent quality. The original painting shows the light a little more. Cold drinks are nice this time of year in South Carolina when the weather is in the 90s. But of course I love the hot weather.

The semester is over! I wanted to squeeze in a painting before my summer class takes up my time for another two weeks. But this painting was just a fun way to put some paint down. I didn't want to worry about the details. I just wanted to have fun! One thing I'm looking forward to this summer is having more time to paint. I want to paint a couple a week. It's fun to put them on here for people to see. I know I like seeing the creations of other people cause they are unique and represent everyone's personalities so much! So here's to summer, to vacations, to refreshment and renewing.

"Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life.
I'll show you how to take a real rest.
Walk with me and work with me--
watch how I do it.
Learn the unforced rhythms of grace.
I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly"
