This was a fun one for me because I have never drawn a still life. I did some in fabric for the FIG study but that is a bit different than drawing one. I decided to use watercolor pencils because I wanted the more pale yellow/green pears. Found several images of pears online and got the idea of what I wanted. Then I lightly sketched it onto the page and then got out the watercolor pencils (I DO love them!!). Then I used my Aquapen to blend and highlight areas. So, here they are -- plump pears!
I obviously have a very long way to go to get a still life I really like but I did learn a lot and enjoy the process very very much!
