Dramatic Pears - Mark H Brown

I setup these pears in a harsh, dramatic light.  This dynamic lighting revealed the wonderful form of the pears and allowed for some rich reds in the shadow side.  I love this old wood box and enjoyed the cooler tones in the aged wood.  This was just one of those paintings that happened while I painted.  I wish every painting day was so "in the zone."  Such a joy to paint!
