In the concept of this artwork I took the saying of things turning “pear shaped” literally. My intention is for the pears to express how the journey of each small progress in my career goes pear shaped so often, but each obstacle in each of those tiny goals is a learning curve that I needed. So I pelt the pears at the ladder.
The painting was then followed up by a sequel, they’re sold together. The sequel is the ladder being dinged around by the pears and the climb continues.
This artwork is oil based, is one of my hand-stretched ones and sold with hooks ready to hang and a certificate of authenticity.
Postage on everything is delayed until August 28/29 due to shuffling things around.
