This is a decent watercolor still life. It could use a little more contrast, particularly around the shading of the grapes.

Aside from the painting being colorful, I can’t see a direct connection to the prompt unless I reach a bit. (For instance, it’s a billion years after Alamo II: The Greyening, when the Green Goo swept over the planet, feeding on light itself, contaminating all in its path and befouling all the water. Here we see some revolting “seed pods,” instances of how the Goo spreads its vile presence.) For this reason of prompt connection, the entry will likely go in my middle tier.

This is pretty neat. It feels a bit washed-out, but that's just what watercolors do, don't they? The piece still conveys the subject nicely. I'm not sure how you applied the shadows on the left and right, but those look excellent as well.

I really liked how you maintained silhouettes and distinct shapes, here, but if I do have to point out a nitpick, I'd say that the pear is bleeding into the upper apple a bit. Or vice versa.

Is it just me or is this picture very grainy? How did this get from the physical world to the screen? It's still very nice, I just wish I could see it full-glory. Can I spot you my address?
