"Left Behind" - original still life oil painting
Here's another of the still life paintings from the class. Probably sounds silly, but I tried to imagine that the pears have emotions (and who knows?) and they're being pretty mean, excluding the poor green pear. So I arranged them accordingly. Fun to paint - I'm learning to love painting fruit and vegetables - something I never dreamed would happen. This painting is 8 x 10". Thanks for looking!

I love your emotional pears ... including the one that's green with envy at the pair of pears
So cool you're having fun with something different.. I like to change things up too. I can see all your work finally by using my phone. Who'd have thought? Win 10 caused me a lot of problems. :)
Have discovered I can find more drama in the painting of a still life than in the figurative.. Like the drama and the dialog here very much..
I really like these pears Connie! When I'm not painting a portrait I like to paint still life....
LOL . Love these pairs and your thoughts about their ( eventual ) emotions, great piece !
Hi Jane - great hearing from you about my still life - thanks so much!
Hi Hilda - Still life is kind of a fun subject, I've just discovered - thanks so much for stopping by!
Hi Anthony - until I painted these still live subjects, I would have never guessed the drama that can be found in them. Totally agree with you - thanks for visiting!
Hey Jeff - so glad the phone's working so well - makes life much easier doesn't it?! Thanks for stopping by!
Hi John - I didn't even think about the green with envy - gives a whole new depth to the story - and the pear-pair word play - Love it!
