The Opposite (Side) of Pears...

Once more actively contemplating the pair of tissue-wrapped pears as done & drawn previously, on this occasion viewed from their opposite sides, thus reversing the composition...

Again, the physical properties of the thin tissue paper allows hints of the colour of the underlying skin of the fruit to show through its translucency or otherwise be obscured where an overlapping layer creates an opacity, in this instance creating a pair of objects displaying distinctly individual characteristics amidst the general uniformity of the 'cloaking'.
