New painting by Amy Crehore , Still Life with Pears 2023

"Still Life with Pears"©Amy Crehore 2023
Oil on linen, 18" x 20"
I'm excited to show you a new painting that I recently finished.
I based the design of the composition on a repetition of circles and pairs of things. 
I've included a fishbowl and a cat along with a still life of pears (a pair of pears). 
The fireplace is based on the one in my house, 
but most of the elements are fictional including the two people.

Starting new work




If you have been following my instagram , you may have 
seen my latest works in progress. 
I sketched an intuitive piece in pencil first. 
Then I did a drawing in conte crayon (not yet finished) and 
moved on to oil on linen this week. I also tried it in gouache last week, but did not like the results. 
It is an interior scene with figures which I drew from my head. (No models or references.)
I am continually working on new things and I'm excited about an exhibit in Tokyo that I was invited to participate in (this summer). More about that later.
