WIP - Some Like it Hot (still life)
15x11 watercolor on Arches 140 lb cold press paper work in progress begun yesterday with detailed drawing using fresh jalapeno peppers, tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions of all varieties. It was painted wet in wet today, and this is about 1.5 hours worth of work in a direct painting style using 1" flat sable brush. I've been buying old kitchen colanders on eBay and photographing any interesting ones in antique or secondhand stores; love the rusted and shiny metal juxtaposed with smooth colorful vegetables' skins. I may put these salsa ingredients on a white tablecloth and will finish this still life tomorrow.
