What I like most about pears are all the plain changes on the skin. I love how the light wraps around the pear and shows a lot of the character through reflected light. I used this pear in a larger painting that I am in the middle of. I'll be posting that later on.
Great colours on this one! I love it.
ReplyDeleteI agree! Beautiful golden tones. I also really love the perspective and the peek of the table in the lower right corner.
ReplyDeleteNice! I especially like the top of the pear and the stem.
ReplyDeleteI don't typically love pear paintings, but when I opened this one I made an audible sigh and said, "WOW". It is stunning. I love the perpective you chose, the reflections, the ease with which you captured the topography of the fruit, and I especially like the top portion of the pear. Bravo!! This is excellent.
ReplyDeletelove this one. one question-did you see the subtle golden tone in the shadow or add it to harmonize?
ReplyDeleteGreat color and a real feeling of scale to this little painting. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteI love to eat fruit, and, when I can pick it off the page and eat it, it says its a SUPER PEAR.
ReplyDeleteYou really elevated the word "bartlett" this time!
Nice Job, I love the shape of pears, too. I recently thought I was painting a Bartlett and learned it was a D'Anjou. The difference is that Bartlett's change color as they ripen, so mine would never get this nice golden color. :^)
ReplyDeletegreat brush work and color in this one. if i could offer a small crit it would be that the triangular shape at the lower left is too distracting. other wise this is a great painting.
ReplyDeletecheers!
