Seven Little Hotties




















Seven Little Hotties

8 in. x 10 in., acrylic on traditional-depth canvas    

$160 unframed 

Home gardeners tend to find each other. Kitchen tables are hot spots for trade deals made over fresh-picked produce and Mason jars put up with the summer's harvest.  While stopping by a fellow gardener's house, I mentioned I was planning to make some green tomato salsa, and before I knew it, seven little home-grown jalapenos were set before me on the table.  Here they are.  A couple of things I loved about this painting this piece were the interesting, multi-layered shadows created by the kitchen lighting and the soft turquoise hidden in some of the highlights on the peppers.
