Pyrus communis (Starkrimson, Bartlett, & Bosc)
Art is strange. Sometimes, drawing feels like an endless struggle. Other times, I sit down with a cup of tea, and in what feels like a blink (but is actually several hours) I have a complete drawing in front of me. Luckily for me, these pears fell into the latter category.
Based on feedback from previous assignments, I tried to focus on lighting, and creating a very 3-dimensional shape for each of my 3 pears. I chose a simple composition to give myself time to focus on lighting and colour.
The skin textures seem a bit off, and I am still a little too heavy handed/impatient with my pencils, but overall I am pleased with how this piece turned out.
