This drawing makes me happy! The colors are so vibrant and it has such personality! The caps have great detail and are nicely rendered. There are a couple of areas I would work on. The reflected highlight on the right is too much of a white line. Reflected highlights do have some color and blend more onto the surface. I would also revisit where the two persimmons meet. With the persimmon on the left, I would darken the right side where it meets the other persimmon and I would also slightly darken the persimmon on the right where the two meet. Maybe it is the photo, but it looks like there are highlights on both of the persimmons where they meet. Lastly I would soften the shadows a little. Great job!
HI Liz , I agree with Doug’s comments. An overlap such as where the persimmons meet is crucial to get right in a drawing. Doug’s suggestions will really help, so send us an updated image to see!
