So this week I was going to concentrate on replicating a still life by Edward Weston for another take on Modernism. I purchased some peppers from my local markets which has some different tones in the skin. Unfortunately I chose bright red peppers with green stalks.

This process is about experimentation and with all experimental processes there are failures. This experiment is an epic fail but I am going to document the process anyway. On the upside I can see body parts/shapes in the peppers I photographed.
