I have enjoyed spending a few minutes looking around this painting to study the techniques used in creating these wonderful textures

Your work is inspirational Peter and I admire the wonderful results you achieve. The dial of the scales is incredibly detailed to perfection.

12"x8" oil paint on ACM panel. Vintage cast iron Salter household scales cradle a quantity of pears (I don't recall the variety). This piece appears in the 2025 TALP exhibition at Patchings Art Centre and, in the process, was fortunate to secure two awards - The Art Supplies with Painters Online Award and The Artist Exhibition Award.
