I did something on this one in which I would love some feedback. It's that Chinese white mixed with a bit of winsor green in the background on the right above the middle strawberry. It's a holdover from oils. I'm wondering if it's too light? Or forget about it altogether? Maybe I'll put a piece of acetate over it and paint it out and see what it looks like. It's also on the same plane as the highlight on the small pitcher. Seems like it's gonna go....
p.s. The new version is on the right. I took out the chinese white and put another layer of color. Hmm...

HI Joyce, it looks like there's and "aura" around the cherries when you enlarge image. Perhaps if you restated the edge of the back cup and add the background color, it would help to push it all back. Beautiful rendering and softness in this painting.
Candy,
I think I'll try that. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment!
