I think most of you have seen this painting before - it's another colored pencil and one that I like even though I'm sure there are plenty of flaws in it.
I'm dragging it out again because I've submitted it to a website specializing in paintings of pears! I know pears are favorite subjects for paintings so it's a wonder that someone hadn't thought of this before. Anyway, I've just submitted it and don't know how it's decided whether a painting will be accepted or whether all submissions are accepted or what.
I have no idea whether my pears will appear on the website or not but it's a huge step for me to put my work, especially work in colored pencil, out there in such a public way. There are some really, really beautiful pears on that site and if my painting is accepted, it would be a real thrill for me to be in such distinguished company!
Here's the website if anyone wants to take a look at all the beautiful art or even submit their pear paintings:

Thanks, Teresa. This is a very old painting and I know it has a lot of flaws. CP will probably never be a favorite medium of mine!
I'm sure you have pears to submit to this website so I hope to see your's there as well as mine!
Your pears are lovely! Great title too. :-) I checked out the pear site and I enjoyed seeing all of the different ways artists chose to interpret pears. Thanks for sharing the link!

Hi Jan
I'm still playing 'catch up' after the holiday.
Just checked the website and your pears are there. Congratulations!
Thanks for stopping by everyone! I was glad to share the link - it's so much fun to see all of those pears! Thanks to Teresa and Joey for commenting on the title - it was one of those things that just popped into my mind after painting this and just had to be the title.
Welcome back, Sue!
These pears are gorgeous, Jan! I didn't know you worked in cp's. You do very well with them. Congrats on having them featured at the Pear Gallery!
