    Thank you for your kind words and thoughtful help. I used to use oils and watercolors; then, the oil clean-up bothered me. I hope to get back to more. Thanks for your encouragement.

Wow this is funky, I love the mix. There is photorealism and also a freshness of realism in art (which I prefer). The items are intreguing. The glass vase and reflections of light, great, the fruit super great, the back cloth a nice foil and really has a colourful punch. The overall effect is so very pleasing... and I like the set up, it reminds me of a boot :)

Very good choice for the contest. I love the vibrant colours you used in this oil painting. Excellent use of light and shade - I especially like how you've shown the glass vase. The silk scarf provides the ideal background. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

This is a great contest entry as this traditional art has a great idea to be part of this placed content, and it is for sure still alive with apples and your background is also well created as the entire content with these small eggs are very harmonious.
Your color choice is excellent, and the result is perfect, all the best of luck, have a happy week as I was missing you, dear friend, big hug, xoxo
