The yellow/blue reminds me of one of my favorites - Vermeer. (My father was from Holland.). Nice job.

Colin Low

The graduation of tone defining the shadow on the lemon is really superb. Not easy to do at all. Creating darker tones of yellow can be real pain and look very unconvincing.

Painter’s notes

I'm painting a larger still life in the same space so this blue board is useful for obscuring the other set-up
