Thanks Laura!

Michael thank you! It's funny, but when I squint on the real one, I don't see the red spots as bright as I see them on my screen... rather disappointing... I started painting this outside... sunny day..with acrylics...had to interrupt the sitting and finished inside with an artificial light, trying to mimic the setup and direction of the cast shadow.. I did try to pay attention to all the details, happy you noticed ... :) Background and table were made up... Thanks for your critique!

I really like this one a lot Silvana.   Your values on the form are right on and your broken color enhances the effect of the texture ..you actually used broken color for a reason.  Your cast shadow is very well done ..very luminous ..(The red spots excluded) .  You have a nice counter change going on with the form, table, and background.  A lot of nice ..subtle things going on in this painting ...careful observation of edges, values, and color was obviously made by you in the creation of this study. ...very nice job Silvana.
