I was trying for the same effect here, as my last painting. I used a purplish (its amazing that "-ish" can sum up all colors nicely...greenish, pinkish etc.) bowl with a purple background. I then placed a yellow sheet of paper to the right of my subject to help lighten the shadows on the oranges. I think I actually like this one better.

Beautiful. The shadow gives an impression like it has been done in bright sunlight. Good work,thanks.
