Pears want to be "IN' like the Tomatoes


I actually began this painting last year and set it aside unfinished. I often paint over old paintings but yesterday decided to 'Doctor' this old one up using a palette knife and changing the composition. It came alive for me. Now many other freshly harvested local vegetables and fruits are begging to be painted next! Not a problem. Palette knife has a mind of it's own.

  1. Wonderful colors! Painting with a palette knife is fun. You've inspired me to pull out some old paintings and paint over them or even continue where I stopped with a palette knife.
