Garlic, tomato, and a knife (WIP)

I painted this from a photo I took. Any critiques wanted!

Re: Garlic, tomato, and a knife (WIP)

My personal critique is that there is no bread and fresh mozzarella, and that this scene is not directly in front of me to eat. I really like it. I love how the right most garlic bulb looks like a heart. I would just say that while you're adding color make the wood a bit lighter than it's showing up in the above picture so that it stands out against the back. I feel like if the tomato, garlic, and knife are the only thing that stands out it might look like it's floating in midair.
