Bartlett Pear Study ~SOLD (Somebody Liked This!)
6 in. x 6 in., acrylic on canvas
$72 (gallery-wrapped canvas, no frame needed)
Just a quick study of a simple Bartlett pear, with it's bumpy, green-to-yellowing ripening transition. I love pears, and I grew up with Bartlett pear trees with were heavy with huge yields every fall. I think they've gotten short shrift here in America, where we're all about apples, all the time. Pears are mellow, juicy and lovely, and ought to be used more often in our common cooking and baking. If this were a food blog, I'd dazzle you with a sexy photo of the glorious pear and cardamom skillet pie I made last fall.
