Pear, Plum And Cherries

Pear, Plum And Cherries

6"x6"

Acrylic on panel

This is the most recent still life I've completed...I love the color combination and thought a dark purplish background would tie everything together. Whenever I can, I paint and draw from life..I threw some dark purple material around my model stand, behind the fruit before I started painting.

I found this great yellow pear with all of these neat markings and decided to paint it along with a couple of cherries and a plum. I've never painted these three objects together, but wanted to mix it up a little bit and was drawn to the color combination. I've also been working on some other pieces with different subject matter (self portraits, street scenes) and realize how much these small still lifes have helped with my speed and  ability as a painter.
