Daily Paintworks - &quot;Pears&quot; by Sheila Diemert www.sheiladiemert.com Pears in a still life painting. I&#x27;ve done many still life paintings including: apples, bananas, lemons, pears, peaches, persimmons, pomegranates, mushrooms, peppers, onions, turnips, radicchio, radishes, acorn squash, watermelon, and eggplants. This brings an appreciation for the beauty of fruits and vegetables--even turnips!
