This hat is decorated with parts of a flag, an emblem from a helmet, ribbons and feathers

Red Pot and Peppers Still Life by K. Henderson


Red Pot and Peppers, 30 x 30, oil on canvas
 
It's been a while since I've created one of my 'Pot' still lifes. I've always enjoyed painting them so I felt it was time for a new one.

This painting has 3 pots, red peppers and a photo of an American Indian woman.

This painting is available directly from me for a limited time. And as always I pay for shipping within the USA.
