Angry Pear is about pears– their troubles, their joys, and their anger. Angry Pear is a recurring character who is angered by everything and everyone. Can she really be blamed? The strip originally began as a characterization of my own life. I coined the word “pearish” among friends and family as a way of describing peevish, fickle, and often silly behavior.
Drew McKevitt is a knitter and illustrator of pears. This blog’s intention is to show pears in their natural habitat and showcase their pearishness.
Drew also writes poetry and works as an editor. She would much rather live with pears…
You can find / follow me and Angry Pear on Facebook and Twitter.
Also check out the Angry Pear Etsy shop!
The new posts are hilarious! treadmill!!! hahahaha like her peaqrls flying out behind her. Did they fall off? they were not in the next scene. hahahaha
Hi, nice to meet you !
Hi, Drew! I love your drawings. They’re entertaining and yet oddly relaxing at the same time. The pears — even the disgruntled ones — are all so endearing.
I came across your site when I entered a recipe for Amaretto-Pear Baked Oatmeal on my site. I’ve happily subscribed.
Thank you so much for your nice comment and subscribing. Your Amaretto Pear Baked Oatmeal looks delightful by the way.
I like the new heading caption – Another day, another pear!
I’ve been reading Angry Pear for a while now, and I want you to know that I love how consistently you make me smile. There’s a lot about this gentle, strangely perverse, very sweet comic to like. I’m all admiring and stuff.
Thank you so much! That means a lot to me. I’m glad you are enjoying the blog (I really like drawing these pears).
hello! Everyone calls me Pear (nick name hahaha). & O-M-G I love your Pear comics! They are so adorable! ^_^
Hi!
Thanks! I’m glad you like them. Pear is a lovely nickname!
My nickname is also Pear! I am also angry quite a lot, so I appreciate your angry pear drawings very much.
I just found your blog through “Freshly Pressed”…It is so lovely ! The pears are all so cute
For a pear , they show a lot of emotions 
what a great concept !
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy it.
So glad I found your blog! Love it!
Thanks. I really like your blog as well!
Great work! Loving this! Congrats on being Fresh-pressed!
Thanks very much!
I’m so happy you were finally Freshly Pressed. You absolutely deserve it! This calls for a glass of pear wine!
Thanks so much! I am absolutely having a glass of wine this evening– just as soon as I get done with work!
angry pears are hilarious!
are there other angry fruit?
Thanks. No only pears. Other fruits are not as fun or interesting.
I love your Angry Pear character, Drew! She’s quite wonderful!
Thank you so much.
Love it! Great idea, and so refreshing- just like a pear!
Thank you!
is Drew one of those pears too?
haha. Yes. I am definitely a pear!
Thank goodness for Freshly Pressed because it led me to finding your awesome works!
Thanks so much for visiting! Freshly Pressed has been great for pears.
dropping by to your page and found a beauty inside. great work. thank you. keep drawing
Thank you. That is very kind.
I’m so glad you got Pressed or else I wouldn’t have discovered this blog.
These are fabulous! I have a cartoon I can’t share because it’s under a different name I don’t want associated, but it has a similar concept: simple images, simple colors, simple props. Done right like this, you can apply them to almost anything can’t you? Great work!!
It’s very true. I feel like things that are not really funny or particularly interesting take on a new tone when happening to a pear. haha
Your pears truly exhibit what life is all about! Thanks for creating them! Keep up the great work!
Thanks! I really enjoy making them, so it’s nice to know people enjoy seeing them!
Very nice blog and very different than most of the blogs that I find. Who would of known that a blog that is all about pears would be so entertaining? This is a really amusing site, and I’ll be sure to come back often to see what the Pears are up to now. PS: I really like the illustrations too.

Thank you! Pears look very unassuming at the market or in fruit salads, but they lead very interesting lives! I like your site as well.
Oh gosh, the pears are wonderful! And this is hilarious! <3
Thank you very much. Thanks for visiting!
So glad your blog was freshly pressed. I love it!
cool blog you got here!…my sister teases me and calls me a pear. your blog just make me feel ‘not teased ‘ anymore.!!! lol. im liking it!
hahahaha, thanks. Actually my grandmother and I used to call each other pears to tease one another. Eventually, it became a term of endearment (as it should be).
Yes, your pears are very inspiring and couldnt help smiling myself.
Thank you so much. I am glad you enjoy!
I simply love these pears. Had no idea pears could be so uplifting, even though they are angry.

http://insanityofmotherhood.com/2012/05/19/one-lovely-blog-award/ Hello. I have nominated you for the One Lovely Blog Award. Congratulations!
Thanks very much! I really appreciate that!
I really love your illustrations…. and pears…of course!!!! ahahahah!
Smmmuack!!!
hahahaha. Thanks!
Congrats for being in the Middlest Sisters 50. Love your idea and the execution is wonderful. Wish I could draw!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate that.
Nice! Pears pair so well with…pretty much anything. Like my walls. Do you ever sell any of your illustrations?
Thanks so much! I actually don’t sell prints right now. I’ve been working on it for a while, but I have trouble with getting the colors just right– hopefully I can make them available in the near future. However, if the pear you are interested in is in black and white, I can definitely make you a print of that. Just contact me by email (angriest[dot]pear[at]gmail[dot]com or on etsy. http://www.etsy.com/shop/AngryPear .
Oops! Just checked out your menu bar and found the pear paraphernalia.
I’m so excited to find this blog! I started collecting pears when I realised they looked like a big boomby bottom swinging from their stalk. So voluptuous. Now they cover my pillows, hang on my walls, sit on my window sill and arrive by post from relatives. Loving your drawings, and have just commissioned my mother to try and knit me a pear
)
Thank you for visiting my blog! I can completely relate to your love of pears. I have the same fascination and they are all over my house as well it’s always wonderful to hear from someone who appreciates (appearciates) pears as much as I do! I hope the knit pear turns out well! I am working on posting a pattern and / or offering them in my etsy shop soon.
Your blog is brilliant, I love the Angry Pears! So cute, even if they are angry!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you like the pears!
Good morning! I know that some of you have already seen the post, but I want to “officially” let each of you know that you were nominated by your blogging friends for the “Good Neighbor Award!” Congratulations!
