Familiar Leanings...

graphite & putty eraser/20x30cm

A little out of their seasonal context perhaps (please refer to both September 2009 & 2010 archives for extensive evidence of their habitual place here at TOoT), but seeming worthy of actively contemplative study nonetheless, this pair of pears were found in this particular relationship to each other, having been arranged thus by another hand.

The pears had, in fact, already been drawn twice during the course of the previous week or so, a graphite study followed by a watercolour drawing, in another spatial arrangement of intimate proximity to each other, but, both works being presented to A, having been made with topical intentions, shall we say, it was felt that they remain more personal than being exhibited here to a potentially wider audience.
