These are the last of the Mira Sol peppers, waiting until they are ready to be harvested for seeds. I have never seen this pepper before, but we like it a lot, so we figured best to save some seeds for next year’s planting.

Pepper Plantling
Garlic, Jalapenos, and a Cherry Tomato
Today I spent the afternoon doing watercolor exercises. Positive and negative space. Lost and found edges. Shadows. This is the best result, though the shadow side of the tomato sucks.
Rosemary & Peppers
Today I experienced a breakthrough in my painting. I intellectually understand negative painting, but today I physically understood negative painting. I just some how “got it” and this painting began to shift in its creation. Our bodies and our minds are so connected, but in this world of a separation of physical health from mental health, the connection is oftentimes lost. Personally, I do have a bit of problem connecting the right brain and the left brain from a long ago head injury, so when that connection occurs, it is really a very physical awareness. I’ve had that when studying math. Today I had it while studying lights and darks.
Fruit of the Pepper Tree
Pepper trees are common in rural California. Rather like willows, their branches and leaves flow gracefully toward the grown.
