Step: 4

Using dark brown and a little black to deepen the color I airbrushed in all the shadows,windows and bottle.

Darkening the pervious mix of dark brown and black I Darken the bottle,shadow, windows and painted the window grate.

Onto the green I paint the two side window casings and shutters and all the greenery and add some green to the background as well.

Back to the yellow I paint in the lemons and brighten up the background it started to get to gloomy. I also add the yellow to the tomatoes,the greens and the table
