"Just Add Water"

This is the third painting I did for my painting class. It's acrylic paints on  a 16" X 20" canvas; titled "Just Add Water". For this one I didn't really follow any sort of theme as I did previously for the first two paintings for this class. Our professor had a basket of fruit set up in the middle of the room for us to paint (for the second unit of fruits and vegetables), and since I had just previously painted my own version of a fruit bowl --I was not overly excited to paint another one. My professor then told me to paint whatever I would like. I sat looking at different objects around the room before I found one.... a watering can. This painting did not look anything like this finished project when I started. Since I had no idea going into class of what I was going to paint, I felt a little like I was forcing myself to paint since I had two hours of class time ahead of me that I didn't want to waste. After leaving class and having a few days to think about what I was going to do; I came back to class and created this instead over the first watering can painting. I like how the background has things going on but they're subtly seen since the eye is drawn to the watering can. Yet if you let your eyes wandering over the entire painting you will find little things here and there. I'm hoping to get some good comments/critiques from my class (or anyone who's looking at this now) that will help me keep figuring out my painting style.
