11May09 Scotch Bonnet by Colin

Here is another little [6"x8" on canvas] kitchen painting.
The lemon pieces were left over from todays lunch.
Smoked salmon and home grown hot green leaf salad.
I bought the chillie this morning from a local turkish food store.
This is where I usually find the best big fat garlic bulbs, and the chewy bread that I painted a couple of days ago.
Then I saw a single bright red scotch bonnet among a tray of green ones.
Such a bright inviting colour .... but.
The scotch bonnet chillie is a dangerous thing.
This one will go into tomorrows dinner!

This original painting (acrylics on canvas, approx. 20cm x 15cm / 8.0" x 6.0") is available for sale for £195.00.
