Sunday Sketching and Gardening Adventures - Morning Glory and Red Hatch Chile Pepper

Sunday sketchbook sketching and painting.  Did you know that Hatch peppers will turn red?  I didn't.   Haven't tried it yet.  I'm still trying to get more experience and get over my fear of adding shadows.  I'm happy with the highlights, though.

We planted moonflowers in the backyard and were growing them over a trellis.   And evidently purple morning glories!  They appeared about a week ago and are giving the moonflowers a run for the money/trellis.

All peppers turn red if not soon picked!

Will they be hotter or sweeter like a red bell pepper?
