Work in progress (completed grisaille), 20 x 20”

I tried to complete this yesterday as promised, but it was so fiendishly difficult (all those subtle shapes and variations in value in the pear) that I ran out of focus. It was closer than I thought, though, and I managed to finish it today. I’m looking forward to adding the colour; it’s going to be a green pear, for a change!
