I almost forgot. I finished this coloured pencil piece earlier and think it has turned out fairly well. It was great fun and made me realise I need to do more work on leaves. They are not easy. I started thus...
I then progressed to a near finish getting more and more into the leaves.
I am finally finished but am far from satisfied, so will continue with more projects with leaves.
The original photo by kayekcpaug of Wet Canvas is the reference below. I do not follow slavishly the photo reference, it is my inspiration for an original piece. I crop, then select the elements that appeal to me, removing and adding for composition´s sake.
Vegetables make excellent still life subjects and are readily available in your fridge drawer to make your own set up.

That looks really good. The shading is excellent and I love the addition of the less ripened tomatoes as well.
What a lovely soft feel you have achieved...much more appealing than the reference photo...but that is what art is all about isn't it!
Very nicely done...they look delicious in your sketch!
Thank you Virginia, Pat and Balaji. It is nice to have kind remarks.
