Painting Pear

From my sketchbook; bought a pear just to paint it. It had a funny unexpected shape and lots of color and texture.  Set on a kitchen towel with side lighting. Good exercise in seeing.

  1. Now this is a pear of a different color! Beautifully rendered and I like the imagined cloth underneath.

  6. That pear looks good enough to eat! Pears have such comical shapes and beautiful mingling colors. I envy those such as yourself who can do these loose sketches so well!
