Good start on these! Especially the green apple. You have chosen a good base color. And are showing an understanding of light on form. You’ve got the highlight and the start of the shadows. I feel it as a sphere. Now comes the fun of bringing in the colored pencils! Think about the core shadow and the reflective light as you do. Be careful of a too prominent cast shadow. I find it is almost aways good to underplay it. Or the cast shadow can start to take center stage.
Hi Katy:) Thanks once again! Really see what you mean about cast shadow. Will try to do this. Think I need to develop more patience with coloured pencils.
