Pepper Tree


I was out on a walk the other day, and realized that some of my favorite trees out here in California are Pepper trees. I love their droopy branches and leaves,  gnarled trunks, the spicy way they smell, and the pretty pink pepper seeds that hang in clumps like grapes and litter the ground beneath the tree. I was thus inspired to paint one. I had a canvas already started, so instead of beginning a new one, I just added my pepper branches to it. Enjoy!
