Pears

Winter is when I most think about how far food travels to get to my table - especially fruits. I do try to offset my carbon footprint elsewhere, and do appreciate every bite, and that must count for something right?

I go through phases, and am currently in a pear phase. Am eating them daily - often several times a day. I like all types. And I love the lines of a pear. Such a sensual shape. So, not surprisingly, am drawing pears in my journal as well. Love how this one turned out. The background of acrylics was painted several weeks ago, and the pears are watercolor pencils.
