Sometimes a painting is just darn fun to paint...and this was.  Phil picked these this morning - peppery and quite crunchy.  It was the first time I painted a colander and I worried a bit about the light from the holes but it turned out to be really easy.   BTW - the reds are much deeper in the painting (not darker but more saturated) than this shows.  For some reason my nice little camera just can't nail reds.
