They look good enough to eat :) I think you did a great job making the peaches look realistic and I especially like the colors and the textures in the reflection.

Good job! The picture is clear and the focus is good as well. The lighting is also very good. I like that it's up close. Nicely done. Good luck to you

    Thank you for reviewing. This painting has been thought a photo on more than one occasion. I usually don't do photorealistic but this I am told has that effect.

Comment from Charlie Newman


First of all, I hope you are fully recovered. After reading how you composed this painting, I was very much impressed with your creative approach. The peaches are realistic in terms of detail and in terms of color. Very nicely composed. Good luck in the contest.

Now I want a peach! ;) I find your ability to paint while in the hospital to be inspiring.
I like the the set up, the whole peach and the cut up peaches along with slight Reflections on the surface you placed them on.
Very nice colors, realism and details.
:)

The composition is interesting. I would not have thought of presenting cut peaches on a table without a plate, but this arrangements allows interesting light effects and reflections. The dark background emphasizes the fruits well. The peaches look realistic. Perspective and proportions are exact. The composition is balanced, but I think that the framing is to tight at the left because the peach is cut off by the framing

    Thank you for that too of tight to left and your very good critique. The painting is not with me now I only have photo record but will look to see if the tight cut can be corrected.

Comment from Lorafina


So very beautiful! I love being able to see the various stages of the consumed peach. The texture of the peaches looks so accurate... And the reflections on the shiny countertop are very well done. It is a very pleasing painting.
