Advice please! I set these lemons up on a white surface and the part I’m pointing to looked bright. I arbitrarily made the surface blue. Does that area need to go darker now for the composition/light source to make sense?
The light blue is still a light colored surface, but it probably would not cause as strong of a reflection as a white surface. With that said I would tone that bright area down some.
Looks so great, Sara. The blue makes the yellow pop. I like the colours you used in the toning of the lemons. Not a big deal – but note to self for future reference -the shape of the cut lemon – the top right side of it is perhaps a bit straight, making its shape on the right look a bit like the shape of a muffin bottom instead of a curving citrus. No need to change, obviously – just a note on ellipses and curves. Lettering is fantastic, as usual.
