Still life with pears and grapes

Pears ripen every year. It is interesting to return to them for painting. With new ideas and tasks. Please look at the two different still lifes from two periods – 2003 and recent 2008. There are the many effects and symbols in the old work. In the new work the shape of the fruits look more whole and expressive.
