After I chopped vegetables for a salad today I looked down at the little triangular rubbish container/drainer in the sink. It was full of cucumber peels, red bell pepper core, radish ends, and mushroom trimmings. I thought it was pretty enough to paint. So I did. Happy Labor Day to everyone who has the day off today. Now back to my fun struggles with oil painting…

Don’t you just love the beautiful colors of vegetables … a lovely painting. You’ve done a great job with the bell pepper core. I would never have thought to paint the peels etc of my salads .. yet, look, how pretty this looks.
