pears
Jenn at Just Add Water Silly is hosting the 18th weekly APR (Artists Playroom) and the theme this week is pears. She loves pears and draws and paints them so beautifully. Pears happens to be one of the few things I can kinda draw - I'm not going to have time to do something new this week (son's accident and doc appts are taking lots of time and I'm planning a big party this weekend - more about that later) so, here are some I did a while ago. These are all in watercolor....
This is a digitally manipulated image (duh).
Here's the original photo.
I actually have a collection of pears in different textures etc. in my kitchen - here's just a few of them.

Talk about over achieving... it is pear mania over here and I am kind of loving that... the drawn ones are my favourites though, and the one in the bottom right corner of the second one is awesome... I would frame that... hope that you are getting through everything... have been thinking of you...xx
ReplyDeleteLovely work! I wonder what is so fascinating about pears? I had a phase where I painted them daily, then changed to bottles - must dig them out again! Valerie
ReplyDeleteFab artwork Terrie, your pictures are beautiful. LOL I have to be honest and say pears are not one of my fave fruits but I do love the shape of them. Hope you are OK honey, been sending you lots of happy thoughts.

Gorgeous Pears Terrie...I love them. xx
ReplyDeleteI love your pear collection! Hope all is going well with your son. Fun watercolor pears--the blocks of color remind me of Warhol.
ReplyDeleteHOPING HEALTH CONCERNS ARE GETTING BETTER. I LIKE YOUR PEAR STUDIES AND YOUR COLLECTION OF PEARS, TOO.
ReplyDeleteWow... what a collection of pearliciousness! I love them all. I hope things get better for your son. I'll keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. I do like that manipulated photo of the pears. I love that shade of green. Warmly, Tracy APR #10
ReplyDeleteOoh yummy pears..... I especially like the second in the series with the four pale pears. Nice collection of pears too! What is it about fruit that is so appealing and so difficult to draw as well. Hope your son is doing well. xox
ReplyDeleteYou really had fun with all those pears!
ReplyDeleteI hope your son is better and better.
Have a super weekend. :)
So many pears, do you have nightmares? They are all fabulous. The digital one is really good.
ReplyDeleteI hope your son recovers quickly.

Hope everything in your neck of the woods is ok, hope son is getting better. Thanks for posting these, it amazes me the loyalty my APR has engendered, I had thought you just wouldn't have time but you did it anyways, and hey, it's not like older art gets mouldy like actual pears would , it's just as fresh and beautiful as the day you created it. Thanks to the over achiever of the week!!
ReplyDeleteLove,
jenn

You know how much I love your photography. The pears that live in your kitchen are awesome. All are great, but I really like the last ones best! BTW, am I the only one who couldn't get on Blogger yesterday? Very frustrating, since I could get on other blogs and web sites, just not BLOGGER.
ReplyDeleteterrie - i like all your pears, i'm partial to the digital ones - i love playing with my computer, editing and changing things up - so this one speaks to me :)
ReplyDeleteGreat set of PEARS!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity of the "four" pears....awesome!!!
blessings,
Cindy♥
I like your 4-block color exploration of the pear, as well as your digital manipulation pieces, because I love color. Hope your son is doing better. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteFantastic collection of pears Terrie,
ReplyDeleteMy favourite is the digital manipulated image...the colours are my favourite and so vibrant! Brilliant job.
I've just read your previous post and become a follower.
I hope your son recovers soon, but as he says it could have been so much worse ~ Be brave and keep smiling ;D
All of these are great! So many different techniques.
ReplyDeleteThe digital manipulated pears really caught my eye! The colors are intense.
ReplyDeletewow, love your bright, colorful pairs, the colors are amazing, makes me think of Andy Warhol a little bit! Hope your son is doing better, :) waving hi from the hills of North Carolina :)
ReplyDeleteLove your pears! The watercolour ones are gorgeous, and that manipulated photograph is just so clever! It looks like a watercolour paintint too!
ReplyDeleteloving your gorgeous pears. The party sounds like a celebration and hope your son is on the mend. Wishing you all well, Annette x
