As you see this is actually on cheap graph paper and I used some stamps and Caran de Ache for the shading. It gives a glazing effect which I like and will start to learn to do with my oils. I am way far away from that though. I have to do my value scale on the pot I drew first. Drawing the pot was the first hurdle! And it all comes back to the drawing...the hardest part.
Power to the Pear!

Martha, wonderful pear, pears lend themselves wonderfully to creativity, their shape and color fascinating, I love how you have rendered this, just beautiful. Hugs

I grew up on a farm with tonns of pear trees ... and pear pie is my absolute favourite thing!

I love painted pears--this is perfect. Martha, you're so darn good!
Great picture. So what if it's on graph paper. It's wonderful how you've made the background and the pear different but the same.
I love your pears, Martha! When I was a little girl, there was a pear tree right outside my window. I always wanted to hang out of it and pick the best ones. {Your daughter is beautiful!} ~K♥
