Still Life

I really enjoy working with acrylic paints, they are so forgiving and so much fun. Here is an avocado and a pear I created. I called the pear Pearascuro because of the intense light and dark or chiaroscuro.

{Chiaroscuro in art is characterized by strong contrasts between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition.}
