Acrylic paint on paper

17.5 x 17.5 x 2 cm

I completed the pears as part of a study of realism. The painting is quite small, allowing me to concentrate on fine detail such as the subtle imperfections and discolourations of the fruit. The dark background makes the pale green of the pears pop, and the orange stems add variation to the colours in the painting.
