Pottery & Chilies Still Life


This is a  still life that I started on last night in Deb Richardson's painting class at Jerry's Artarama. It is a Mexican clay pot filled with dried chilies and has some spilling over. I am trying to paint this a little looser  than I usually paint. The one figure holding up the pot in the foreground will have more detail than the others. The chilies too will have some detail.The pot is sitting on a burgundy drape and I also have attempted to paint that very loosely...easy to get bogged down in detail on a drapery. This drape looks fairly nice at a distance. This is painted on Arches cold press paper from a block.
