Squash and Hot Peppers
Watercolor on Arches Cover Cream Paper
This was a demonstration in simplicity and color application in my Thursday afternoon class. I love the colors of fall vegetables, although this would be pretty much nothing without the hot peppers. We cooked that cut squash for dinner - I didn't add the hot peppers. I don't mind a little kick, but I am not quite sure how to tell what "heat" I'll end up with when I'm cooking it myself.
There was a little ice this morning on some water in a container in the backyard, and then later in the morning it actually snowed - great big flakes for quite awhile. I am just not ready for this.

Wonderful beautiful veggies. Love your looseness. love your work Catherine. take care, Diana--ps I ate my acorn squash but how did you cook yours mine weren't so good.
Catherine,
I love the squash painting!
Did you make this watercolor book yourself ? If no, can you let me know where you bought it?
Thanks - I need some inspiration to do this everyday, so I'm looking forward to your November blogs.
Mary
Diana - thanks! I just cooked my squash in the microwave and put a little maple syrup and olive oil in the cavity (I know - weird combo!). Acorn squash are not the tastiest of the squash family, but they are easy and nice to stuff. Some acorns are very bland - could it be that they aren't ripe?
Mary - Thank you! Yes, I did make the book.
I must warn you that my November blogging can be more quantity than quality : ) but I hope it inspires you.
Your Squash(s) are beautiful! So loose, and what I am always trying to achieve!
Your posts are always inspiring ! :-)
Fresco, vivo, directo, con la aparente sencillez de quien domina el medio y además lleno de encanto. Felicidades, y saludos desde España.
Thanks Marj. We'll see how inspiring you think they are at the end of November : )
Margarita - thanks for your kind comments, and greeting to you from the USA.
