Good composition with the organization of the different sized and colored fruit while maintaining color control of a limited pallet. The dark background is traditional and persuades the view to gaze at the fruit just a little longer than the viewer intended to. This is a simple and pretty still life. Reasons for my five star vote.

Very effective and realistic. Great colour ideas natural and taking in a shaded area gives a kind of attractive glow. Digital art still puzzles me. I am no novice on computers and keep meaning to load something up and give m it a go but time and teaching myself is not easy to find.i don't think it will be that easy it looks a skillfull tallent is required. You have that without a doubt. It a specially good still life with excellent presentation.

I especially like the simplicity of this digital painting, and also the use of an all dark background. I also like a lot the way you have used the light, and especially on the Orange.

Your brush work is excellent, bringing out the fine textures of the fruit, and the colors are truly lovely.

The format and framing is Perfect and the fruit has got a very good placement on the canvas. A truly lovely and well done painting Cleo.

Very nice still life painting. The black background does a wonderful job at bringing out the fruit, showing not just their bright sides but also helping show us the rich detail of the darker shaded sides as well. I like the blending of color, with the warm tones all over, and their variety of hues fleshing out these spherical objects. I like how the table is that dark color, so that it blends very well with the background so that the sole attraction is the fruit.

I call this old world art, as it takes a special artist from old school to create such a masterpiece.

Your piece is simply gorgeous!

Colors are perfect and your piece is standing on its own with skills that are worth sharing again.

such a wonderful painting of the digital art type. great focus and clarity. the subject matter is well chosen and the selected positions are really classic and classy. the earth like shade in the background is very effective here.

This is delightful. I have always liked paintings of fruit against a dark background. What program do you use for this kind of digital art? My admiration. Thanks for sharing. Oh, did you read my short Mesoamerican story yet?

Cleo,
A beautiful picture of the Pineapple with it's spiky green top still attached & beside it a lemon and an orange all three fruit glowing out from their dark background. Created by your artist's eye for composition, very skilful digital artwork & techniques beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this scene to life.
