Golden and chartreuse pears cluster across a cream background, their forms rendered in soft watercolor with naturalistic shading and subtle gradations. Two pears are sliced to reveal their pale interiors with dark seeds, while scattered dark green leaves punctuate the composition with graphic simplicity. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
