This pear is on a 5x7 sheet of St. Armand's paper. I am trying different watercolor papers and still my favorite is Arches 140 lb cold press. There is nothing much better than that for watercolor. Fabriano is good too but I think that Arches beats it for watercolor.
As I told you I am on a "pear tear" so you will see lots of pears in the coming days. I try to paint one everyday. I plan to do them in watercolor and acrylic.

So beautiful and fun.
Beautiful Martha! I love painting pears too, and I've just started to play around with watercolors--not quite sure what I'm doing, but I'll keep going.
P.S. You can do everything good!!
This is just stunning, Martha! The colors, the shape of the pear, everything! Happy New Year to you and your family.
Beautiful pear and I will look forward to your next one(s). Also thank you for your insight on paper. I have always liked Arches too-hot, cold & rough.

Love this one. I hope you're still planning on teaching a pear class!!!

So pretty and cheerful...love it:)
Martha may i repost this on my facebook page & my regular blog (6degrees of geekdom)? This is just so stunning and exactly the right color punch to perk up some sad and grumpy co-workers. What I would really love is to have it hanging at work... but c'est la vie.
This is stunning. I can not even begin to describe how happy that mad my heart!
love the edge around this picture. colors are wonderful like always
Martha, your pears are so life like that I want to just pluck them from the paper. You get so much texture in them. Wonderful!
