Three pears

Comments

I just bought two big pears today and have been planning subconsciously how to make a still life using them. You have got three pears and a jug which make a perfect composition. I love it and the colours you have used too, Marjorie.

Thanks Satu - I'll wait to see your usual inspired take on the pears, somehow think they'll be different to mine!<br />Thanks Dennis for your lovely comment.

Wonderful piece, Marjorie. Full of immediacy, with a lovely subtle palette.

Thanks everyone - strangely enough Maureen and Gudrun, the small space freed me up with the background.

Such a beautiful study Marjorie! Those pears look so soft and the blue complements them perfectly!
