"Golden Peppers"



I had a few wipe outs painting these peppers. They have a translucent quality that I wasn't quite capturing. It was frustrating but I'm glad I finally arrived at a happy place. They were under the lights so long they were partially cooked!

Mike you perfectly captured the translucency.I think a few wipe outs wouldn't really hurt if you get such fine results at the end.

You did a great job conveying the translucency of these!

Mike, I'm so happy to find you! I love your work! I looked at your blog and then your website. It's amazing how you paint light.
