This is an interesting pear. I believe it is from Italy, I looked up the name and that was what I found. I am looking forward to tasting it..... my reward at the end of the painting! It is green, not a bit of red to be found on it anywhere. Well, I guess that's why I decided to do the background red... quite a lot of color, even for me. I used Ludwig vibrant colors, a small set I purchased a while back. It's not the full vibrant set, just 14 of them. And yes, they are vibrant!
I used Unison, Mount Vision, Ludwig, Girault, Grumbacher, and Art Spectrum Pastels. This is painted on Wallis Pro, and was underpainted using Pan Pastels.
I do think I will paint it again, so the snack will have to wait... Maybe not such an intense background next time...
