"Pepper" By Debra Tritt Kreiger

"Pepper" Watercolor 5"x3.5" on 300lb Arches Paper

This is a mini. I love to do these little paintings in between the larger ones. Gives me a little practice in painting a little quicker. I also wanted to try the 300lb paper which I like very much. I used the layers of lettuce to give a different texture into the mix and to incorporate the complimentary color scheme, and to make it pop!

Pepper Polka Watercolor Still Life with Vegetables by Pennsylvania Daily Painter Bertie Brown

Pepper Polka

original watercolor still life with vegetables

Pepper Patter

Peppers here, peppers there

Peppers poppin’ everywhere

Some are yellow

Some serene green

All are mellow

Laid back fellows

Let’s not stop

With that mild lot

Let’s go for HOT

And that means RED

The big red bell?

Well, probably not

But you can tell

That small hot shot

Is packin’ heat

That’s tough to beat!

Veggie Tails Watercolor Still Life with Vegetables by Pennsylvania Painter Bertie Brown

Veggie Tails

original watercolor still life with vegetables: 8"w x 9"h

A Vegetable Tail

Is the tip of a root

That thrived as it grew

Hidden from view

Though some roots are inedible

Others taste incredible...

From the stem to the tail

A few never fail

To brighten my plate

With flavor so great!

(I’m excluding kale

But that’s another tale)

Sophie Says

Hey there Sophie

What can we say

Of this painting

That is waiting

For a clever

word endeavor

Tying everything together to the letter

We’ve got eggplants

Pumpkins, peppers

Doin’ dances

Stealin’ glances

Some romantic

Silly antics

All in view of stodgy bottles with those long necks.

Did we mention

That cute donkey

A slow stepper

To the pepper

And those patterns

Folds and colors

Help unite the veggies all to one another...

Radish Recital by Bertie Brown

Radish Recital

13 1/2"w x 10 3/4"h

Radish Recital

Sophie said, Let’s use our new paints today

Carmine and Windsor blue

Areolin too

What could we paint

With our trio so quaint

Radishes, I think, would work out just great

Wet applications

Give us saturations

Int’resting patterns

With water and spatters

Red, blue and yellow

Make fine pallet-fellows

Radishes Blush

Their round cheeks red and lush

And the foliage

Green and gold-ish

Finish off the work

The radishes vital

A rich red recital

Is now on display

Today!

Eggplant Eggs-travaganza by Bertie Brown

Eggplant Eggs-travaganza

13"w x 10"h

Egg-ceptional Eggplants

Sophie says let’s do a painting today

We’ll use some veggies

With plenty to say

There at the groc’ry store

Dark and demure

Eggplants so purple

Their beauty secure...

Yes, let’s buy them

Not to fry them

But to show the world

Their outspoken beauty

It’s really our duty

To capture their deep.....

Dark sheen!

'Bouillabaisse' by Claire Beadon Carnell

'Bouillabaisse'
9" X 12"
on archival linen board

I did this painting for the DSFDF Challenge, and
added the fish to make it different. I loved
working with the saturated colors and playing with
the shadows, and especially enjoyed creating the shadow
and reflected light for my imaginary fish!

'Bouillabaisse' is currently available for purchase on eBay.

If you would like to see more of my work, please
feel free to go to my web or my blog. Thanks!

From the Garden, by Linda Young

From the Garden
9 x 13 Watercolor

These are vegetables grown in my trial Carlisle garden this year. Knowing they wouldn't keep forever, I wanted to preserve them in a painting.
