Two fresh red pears

I asked for three but it's the end of the fresh pear season here so I'm doing good to have gotten two!

These are not as red as the Barletts I had earlier in the season, these are rudier and are more in keeping with Pantones color for 2015 "Marsala". I also am quite enamored with the greenish blush on the large pear and the stripes on the smaller pear.

Since I have only two pears my original idea is well, will no longer work. So I'm playing with these to see how I want to use them in my work. Next up some thumbnail sketches and I think I will slice one open it could get interesting!
