Hot Sauce



Hot Sauce

7x5in oil on canvas  $100. SOLD



Day 9 in the 30 in 30 Days Challenge
My personal goal  for this challenge - to paint only what I have
never painted or thought of painting before.

Artist Note.

I am staying with a friend in Albuquerque and she has this
great bottle of hot sauce. I mean the bottle is great - I have not
tasted the sauce. She recommended I try painting it.

Workshop was intense and fun today. Cold wax was used as
the medium and I am looking forward to seeing how it dries.
I like the surface quality very much.

I enjoyed reading the comments and I thank everyone.
It is also fun hearing from new people in The 30 in 30 Challenge.
I will be visiting blogs when I return home.
And to the all those "blogger challenged" who sent me so many personal
emails congratulating me on being The Art Room blogger of the day,
I thank you, too.

  1. It might have been a good idea to paint that bottle rather than taste its contents. Looks hot to me. You definitely captured its essence.

  4. Well, I am playing things more safe than you, but secretly I wish I was able to just pick a subject and nail it like you can. I assume that the sauce is hot, since the painting looks hot and spicy with it's warm colors. Well done.
