an apple- painting

This study shows the general shapes and coloring of an apple from above (painting 1) and looking at it from the front (painting 2).

At the early stage I tried to keep everything quite simple .

 

painting 3.                                                                                                  painting 4.

I need only one painting for this task and i decided to make two from different angels, so that I can compare and choose the one which I like. Sofar  I am thinking about the painting 3. as it has more contrast in green colour and the shadow is darker . From the other hand the painting 4. has more depth in the background but the task was about an apple as an object so my choice is simple. I am going to select the painting number 3.
