YOU MUST EAT THE PEAR, 6x8", Oil, SOLD


If you want to know the taste of a pear, you must change the pear by eating it yourself. If you want to know the theory and methods of revolution, you must take part in revolution. All genuine knowledge originates in direct experience.


Mao Tse Tung








If you want to be an artist, you must eat the pear.  Paint, paint, paint.  And then paint some more.






I'm trying!

What wonderful colors, Carol. Cute Title and I immediately wondered how it would sound if you translated it in French again!

Beautiful pears in jewel-tone shades... I can imagine some fine Rouquefort cheese to make this treat complete.
