Pear Studies

Bought some new fruit at the Wegmans.  A bartlett and a red pear.  Decided to work on drawing the foreshortened plate in these.  Man do I need a lot of work on that.  Also felt like doing some pallet knife work on the textured canvas.  Man do I hate textured canvas.  Well, at least the rough junk.  I need to load them with gesso to fill in the texture.  And as usual, cheap camera does not get the colors right, but I am trying to do a little editing

This pear had a nice peachy splotch.

This pear had so many colors running through it. I enjoyed trying to render.
