Lots of family and friends requested paintings as gifts this year. I guess that saves me money, but it's hard to know what to paint for them. Hopefully I did an ok job :) And now that Christmas is over I can post them here!
Sometimes when I get frustrated with my paintings I take a break and just paint something fun that I know will turn out how I want it to. For me it's usually these little pear oil paintings, I love the colors I get to use and the shapes of the pears.
I love painting pears, I think I always will. I like how they're never the same shape, each one has unique curves. I also love blue and green together, which anyone who went to my wedding already knows :)
