Veggie Still Life Sketches

 I did a few still life sketches using veggies. Most of these were done for hunt items for Creative Spark's Scavenger Hunts. The top and bottom one were done postcard size so I could use them in the postcard project.


Cabbages are not easy to paint. There are too many overlapping leaves and veins in the leaves.


This one was done as a continuous line sketch (see the bottom photo). I like the way some people have done pepper paintings so I went off to buy a few interesting peppers at the market. Sadly, most of the peppers were green and not all that distinctive, or else really tiny. So I bought a red onion for color and threw in some garlic too.

  1. Beautiful, if you had a tomato, it would be salsa! Yummy looking as is.
