These pears look as if they are trying to avoid each other; even their stems are leaning away from each other. These Comice pears look very different when light hits them from various angles. They are still fun to paint, but getting the colors correct is a challenge.

These are new pears that I haven't tasted yet; they are Comice pears. I was drawn to their interesting shapes and the long stems. Their coloring is also different from most pears, they are mostly golden with only a few hints of green. I can't wait to see how they taste when they soften up a bit.

It's a gorgeous day and I have been painting all morning and still have more I want to do. I will be outdoors enjoying the sunshine before long, though!

The pear on the left is giving support so the others can stand for a family photo.
