The Kiwi Fruit Remake

My favorite fruit is the kiwi, and I decided to draw it because it also uses green and brown tones, which are colors that are often used in my works. There are three photos: the first one is the original photo, the second one is the one I illustrated, and the third one is the one I did with a realistic background. I decided to do this work because I used to illustrate fruits for other art classes, and wanted to illustrate one for my portfolio. Besides, this fruit is healthy, which also resonates with my own values, as I am currently working as a graphic designer for a gym. I really want to frame this work, since I liked it a lot when I finished it. The purpose of the work was to illustrate the details of a complex image and turn it into a clean, and visually pleasing illustration.
