Pair of Pears

And a couple cherries in honor of the Cherry Festival starting tomorrow. This original oil is painted on a 5 x 7 canvas panel. I wanted to change things up a little and go darker. I saw a photo of pears in a crate in a food magazine recently and found the photo very eye-catching. This is my version of going dark, I love the drama.
