I'm not sure I've EVER painted something like this... it was a copyright free photo I found, oh and I think it's Kale? and the photo was taken at the vegetable department of a grocery store..
I have no idea what it is, maybe the cabbage family... LOL! the painting is awful but the color gave me the life I needed today. !
Hey who knew veggies could be so lively !! I'm dancing ! BJ

It is beautiful and colorful, BJ! I think they are cabbages, very vibrant color. Must be very healthy I'm sure! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Judy, it was the color that got to me.. I love soft grayed greens, but those hot pinks ( Holbeins Opera ) with it were talking to me. BJ
ReplyDeleteI love those vibrant fuschia and pink shades. This is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI think this is beautiful! I thought this was copy of some gorgeous Victorian cabbage rose wallpaper. Maybe that is where the term "cabbage rose" came from? No matter...this is really lovely and I could so use this as wall paper if'n I had enough of it!
ReplyDeleteI love those pinks and veggie greens, BJ. We get Kale over here in the UK, but I can't remember if I've ever eaten it. I googled it and it is indeed one of the Brassicas like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, choy etc so, if you like your greens, give it a go :)
ReplyDeleteThe lovely vibrant pinks and dull brassica greens really work well. This is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI think this painting came out great. I like the contrast of colors in the piece. Nice work.
ReplyDeleteI have cabbage just like this growing on my plot the colour is beautify and the taste is equally as good. Kale is a very very dark green vegetable with a strong flavour. I liked you website it is amazing.
ReplyDeleteOh it is such an uplifting colour! I agree! I LOVE that gorgeous pink :0)
ReplyDeleteYes, that's ornamental cabbage! It's used quite a lot over here in (flower?) displays, often intermixed with a lovely cream and green variety.
ReplyDeleteThe painting isn't as bad as you make it out to be - it gets the thumbs up from me :)
Thanks to all of you ... I might try another 'colorful' vegetable.... BJ
