Two Golden Pears


Soft pastels on Sennelier Carte Pastel Board, approx. 7" x 5"
These two Bosc pears weren't in very good shape anymore, but they still had
some beautiful colors in them, and in the right light they were worthy subject
matter. I had a piece of Carte Pastel left, in one of their colors - which are very
strage, by the way - this one is sort of a cross between tan, curried chicken, and
moss. I scanned the image. Whether a photograph or a scan, it's terribly difficult
to give a color image its due. The "golden" quality doesn't really come through, for
some reason. Oh well, I guess you'll just have to imagine it.
Thanks for visiting.
