Pear Drops

Celebrate the beauty of everyday objects with this expressive and colourful still life from Emma Gurner. Gurner’s signature style shines through the thick, tactile application of paint, making the pears feel almost three-dimensional. The bold striped wallpaper effect and dark tiled foreground provide a graphic frame that makes the green hues pop. This piece is a perfect focal point for those who love art that is as much about texture and pattern as it is about the subject.

Emma Gurner is a London-based artist whose work brings together her fine art roots and years spent in interior design and styling. Known for her confident use of colour and playful compositions, she creates still-life paintings that draw directly from the things and spaces that make a home feel personal.
