Habanero Yellwo Orange Chili Pepper Watercolor Painting

Did another one of the Habanero Chili Pepper in watercolor.  Love the orange color and it’s shape.  I am still struggling with the watercolor wash for the body of the pepper.  I would like to make the orange part more transparent and try a wet in wet wash next time instead.  Making mistake is how you learn.  In the library I  come across of a good book on watercolor wash by Joe Garcia.  I think I have loaned it out before and is called Mastering the Watercolor Wash.  It is a very informative book on different types of watercolor wash.  I think I might try to get a used one from ebay for my own reference.
