"Double Pears"

  In China, pear has good fortune meaning because we pronounce pear as "Li", it is similar pronounciation to "wealth", "profit" in Chinese. So, when the holiday especially Chinese New Year comes, people put some pears on the table to hope they can have good fortune all year long. Here I painted these two red pears to bring everybody some luck!
