Happy New Year!

5.5x8.5 watercolor and ink, inspired by a can of blackeyed peas containing tomatoes, onions and jalapenos, commonly known as Hoppin' John.  Sometimes served with rice or just on a bright white plate, the peas are a tradition for good luck if you eat them on New Year's Day.  So HAPPY NEW YEAR!
