In reality, this pear was unripe and not very good for eating. It was sitting on a plate getting kind of slimy when I painted this little still life, but I like the way the painting turned out.

The blog Orangette recently had a lovely piece about poached pears. I would love to try it if I were lucky enough to find good pears, which is rare in New England. Perhaps I will try it the next time I get a box from Harry and David.
