November Pear

9x5.5 mixed media still life on vintage book text done last week.  I started this Bosc pear out as a simple ink sketch with a Staedtler 0.3 pen, the added watercolor.  White areas are acrylic for highlights.

Three Pears

15x22 watercolor on Fabriano 140 lb hot press paper, demo done today for the Snyder TX Palette Club located at the Winston Airport, about 50 miles north of our town.  I color sanded several watersoluble colored pencils into the wet areas for texture.  This was a timed demonstration for one hour.  The painting is SOLD.

Partnership pears

11x15 watercolor pair of pears, a demo for yesterday's students in which we were exploring the properties of watercolor on hot press paper, Fabriano 140 lb.  The Bosc pear is darker red in reality and note the other's lost edge where light hits its right upper edge.
