Cranked this one out in under an hour, but have gotten a strong reaction to it at shows. Was in the studio painting with the kids. Didn’t feel like doing anything too detailed. So, snapped a shot of a pear on the counter, and went to work. Used a Pointillistic technique on this one – used dots of various colors to create the overall color – your eye blends the colors. Colors opposite on the color wheel (like green and red) placed next to each other vibrate and draw your eye in. Colors close to each other on the color wheel (like green and yellow) placed next to each other on the painting tend to recede.
