Not done this poor pepper plant justice after all its gone through. Only just getting fruit now, after starting it way back in May, and its now looking like a cheese plant with all its holes from its resident (now evicted) caterpillar. It was only when I started to paint it that I realised what a beautiful spottled purple stem it had, as its been back lit all summer sitting on my kitchen window. I should make the time really to do a proper painting and do it justice.

Very nice use of the color. It's quite painterly. I have a few of those "lacey" plants myself! nancy
ReplyDeleteI think you've done a great job with this! And unfortunately, I have many of these lacy plants this year too! The caterpillars were fierce this year!
ReplyDeleteNice use of color, that's for sure. You should do more of it.
