A bowl of fruit is one of the staples of shading. I decided that for my art piece, I would mix it up a little. You’ve got your standard banana, apple, orange, pear, and blueberries, but instead of drawing the fruits in the bowl, I drew these fruits falling into the bowl. This choice has helped me to represent more artistic elements and principles in my work, such as space, movement, and balance. It also allowed me to practice my shading through further examination of shape and value. I hope you like this piece and that it inspires you to think outside the box!
