Thank you all for your comments! I can't believe I stayed away for so long, as all of your comments, critiques, etc. are always helpful!

Here's an up-date... still lots to do.

Re: Wde 8/18/12 - Tomatoes In Still Life - WIP

Thank you all! I'm really liking the colors on this too, but I HATE working with red pastels! They're always so hard (as opposed to soft)! But I figured out a little trick, I sand them onto the paper, and then smush them into the painting!

I'm gettin' there! What do you guys think.... should I add the tomatoes to the right, or leave it as is??

Here's another up-date...
