Summer Pears

I found this great piece of material (actually a placemat from Crate & Barrel ) for the background to these luscious pears. Unfortunately there was only one left as usual on sale.

Jelly Donut

I enjoy reading Kelly MacDonald's daily blog. She is in a donut painting war with a fellow daily painter.
I decided to try my hand at a Dunkin Donut jelly filled one. I would like to add that by the time I got around to painting it most of the powdered sugar melted off due to the high humidity we are experiencing now on the east coast.
