Great entry for the contest. The colors ad composition are both good. Could use a tad more depth. Very nicely done

Thank you very much for your honest review. I will work some more on the shading. It was my first attempt in a still life in this style, I borrowed from local native art.

Now this is certainly a very beautiful picture here. It has a traditional flare to it and yet it is digital. Just excellent! I love your choice in different fruits and the ceramics. They all go well together.

Gorgeous assortment of colors to create this very nice still life. Everything is well placed. The large grape leaf is eye catching. The background colors and textures work very well with the fruit. Nice impact. The best of luck in the contest. Thanks for sharing.

Nicely done! Good use of colors. This takes my mind to the Italian kitchen. A little more shading on the fruit would make it really pop. Very nice!

Painting is not my field, but I know what I like, and the colors jump out at me from this creation of yours. Thank you for sharing
