Yellow lemons and red strawberries on a blue background, makes a lovely composition with the three primary colors. 

Some "in progress" photos below...

I began with a medium gray background, but just felt it need to be a different color, or value.

I changed it to a darker blue...

and then even darker still, and I loved it!  I should have known the third primary color would be the perfect choice to pair with red and yellow!
