**Fruit salad** --- Yes, strictly speaking these vegetables are all fruits. --- 1: seedream-5.0-pro 2: recraft-v4-pro 3: qwen-image-2.0-pro 4: nano-banana-pro 5: grok-imagine-image 6: gpt-image-2 --- Style: Traditional oil painting on a smooth linen canvas. A sophisticated, high-chroma palette with a focus on accurate color temperature and "clean" color mixing. Use of subtle, neutral transitions contrasted with vibrant, saturated accents in focal areas. Naturalistic, soft-focus lighting with a strong emphasis on the "big masses" of light and shadow. Capturing the atmospheric glow and the way light wraps around forms. Executed in an "Alla Prima" (wet-on-wet) style. The focal point features tight, photorealistic detail and "sharp" edges, while the periphery dissolves into bold, painterly, and spontaneous "loose" brushstrokes. Expert "edge control"—ranging from "hard" and "firm" to "soft" and "lost" edges. Intentional, deliberate marks that avoid "over-working" or "licking" the canvas, maintaining a fresh and energetic surface. Handpinted art, not photographic. Clean background, smooth gradients, no speckled noise, no random floating particles or grain or dust unless intentional, no visual artifacts

Indeed. Was having the conversation about tomatos and avos with somebody in NC, inspired research that surfaced enough examples for a fruit salad 😀
