I like how the forms of the pears are like forerunners to Picasso's later very stylised nudes. Here are two of his stillifes with pears..

Lovely - shows that a simple pear can have many different aspects. Spot on perfect tones! Have fun with the butter.

I am enjoying the pears here too - $1 per kilo at most roadside stores. What an interesting still-life you have shown us here showcasing the form of the fruit.
