Naughty pears

Pears are a much-painted subject so it's hard to make them your own... and yet, they're so alluring to paint. I decided to have fun with them and deliberately cropped the sketches and named them just to liven things up.

I do love painting fruit, as most artists do. When I cropped the sketches for this series, the shapes and arrangements suggested attitudes that one may not necessarily associate with the average Bartlett or Anjou.
