Red Onion and Baby Peppers

6"x6" Oil on gessoboard 

I use these vegetables a lot for salsas and salads! In my last post I said I would be multitasking...well I have been doing that!! Two more fruit paintings nearly finished, application and contract for Art Show done and another painting blocked in!! Next is to package and post artwork. All next week I will be painting...I love that thought!!!!

Squash and Cipollini Onions

Drawing # 11
Pastel on felt textured paper

My good friend gave me this squash and I bought the onions at the market, it's the first time I have ever seen them here.They are sweet and delicious roasted... great to paint too! I loved the soft colors of these vegetables, so it's another one I will paint in oils. This was drawn on some new felt textured paper I bought, it is mid grey  tone and has a nice surface for pastel...great for sketching!!
