This is a nice composition Richard and nice job on the leaves. I would go back and add more toning to the leaves where they overlap and where there would be shadows cast by the peaches, etc. The peaches themselves are missing a highlight and the range of tones that are going to give them form. That form should be established on your drawing before you add any color. Wendy has a peach zoom workshop coming up that would give you a lot information and tips (like creating the fuzzy skin peaches have).
Nice vibrant colors, Richard. This looks a lot like one of Wendy’s drawings. Did you use it as a reference? It’s okay to practice and learn from other’s drawings, but there is nothing better or more instructive than working from a live subject. Now that you’ve practiced with this drawing, I would love to see you work on another peach that you can hold and look at closely.
