Blushing Pear

I bought this dish about four months ago but I could'nt work out how to use it until today.You know when a light bulb goes on and a composition comes to together in your mind....the rest is history as they say.

A Pear and some Strawberries

I've finally managed to paint this composition.I'm not entirely happy with it but it's such a relief to be painting again and that is a reward in itself. : )

Something I used to do alot as a teenager was carry a sketch book and just draw.I find this very relaxing and good practice,especially since these days I have not been able to find the time to paint.
