This pear was one of my favorite paintings of mine. I really loved the coloring and shadows that I was able to do. As a class we collaborated and helped give each other ideas. I asked for help on my background and what I should do for it. I don't like how I left the back just plain red, but it does make it different from others paintings. I took chances by not looking at the pear to much and just going off of what I thought a pear should look like; shape, colors etc. In the end I am really proud with how my piece came out because I also developed new skills to use in future artwork. Such as layering the paint and making I thicker in some areas.
