More Pears

Had to paint those darn pears again.  They keep getting more character as they get overly ripe.  I found also that photoshop  is fun for quick changes.

Changes were just a couple clicks in image adjustments!

Partridge and Couple Pears

I borrowed some paints today because someone left fruit on the counter, ripe enough to eat but had to paint it first.  It isn't a partridge you probably know but tis the season.  Yesterday I said good by to one of my paintings but I know the new owners will give it a place of honor.

 

It's been a busy last two weeks, getting ready for the show last weekend, nearly finished cleaning out a storage room and now cat sitting for a friend. I felt really compelled to paint today and glad I had the inspiration. Thanks for stopping by and I'll get back into a regular blogging  schedule hopefully.

Edit: The owner of my painting met me at Fehrenbacher Hof  to pick up his art.

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.
