I hope you are enjoying reading “An Affair with Pears. I have enjoyed sharing elements of my artistic vision.

I look beyond the traditional still life presentation of pears. To create the feeling of motion and give my subjects a personality, staging with props and lighting is critical.
A lot of it is purely instinctual.
As I prepared this post, I remember back to my high school days, I was a member of the school band. While the band was primarily a concert band, we did some marching engagements. Yes, I played the drums.
