Pepper Basket

4x7 watercolor of an old beaten up basket I saw while in Ruidoso years ago, holding ripe red chile peppers.  This basket was at a nursery greenhouse called 4 Seasons and I liked the shadows on the pavement and bright sunlit area to the right lower side.  Paper support is Strathmore 140 lb cold press with Daniel Smith paints.
