Still a tongue twister. Maybe not quite as twisty as the original two-syllable peppers. But I painted pears, not peppers. I am working on a recipe for TDAC. It has been a while since I turned one in, and I actually have four that are in various stages of completion. I will show you this finished recipe soon. For now, here are the pear parts.

Enjoy your day!

30 Paintings In 30 Days, Day 8

Week one of Leslie Saeta’s September 30 Paintings In 30 Days is over. It was a struggle for me. Maybe I was trying to hard. The other artists taking part in this challenge are so very talented.

I managed to stay loose on this one, and did not overwork it. I didn’t even sketch it in first. I thought maybe that would help me to work faster and I do think it helped.

I have a recipe for a grilled cheese sandwich made with Brie, thinly sliced pear, and mustard on whole wheat bread. Doesn’t that sound delicious?
