Bosc Pear #2 (app 5 x 9 1/2 oil on wood panel


This photo has the greens less subtle than I painted. Bosc #2 is to be followed by #3 if I can get #3 into shape today. We had rather ugly winter weather last night, rain and snow and sleet, the streets are treacherous, which means no errands today. I have a whole day of un-interrupted time to get old #3 into shape. E-mail me at artistjohnwlong@live.com if you wish to.

Bosc Pears #1 5x7 Oil on wood panel


Bosc Pears #1 just flowed onto the panel, guiding my hand wherever the brush needed to be. It was easy, it was pleasant, and whoever it was who said if it feels good do it, I'm following that advice. #2 and #3 are already under way .
