Thank you, @bbruno and @renatafp!

Nice Susan! You really captured the feel of the tomato skin on these. Lovely.

115! Yikes. Really lovely. It’s a beautiful composition, and you did a great job getting nice and saturated with the colored. I love those shiny seeds in the lower right corner. The secondary veins on your leaves seem a little too uniform and a little too wide to me. You may want to go in, and make those veins wiggle a little, and narrow them up a…[Read more]

Really nice page!

Thank you, ladies!!

Ooooh, Sam! This is gorgeous! May I please have a slice?

I love this – Beautiful!

This is just lovely!

Pam ,since grapes are simi- transparent the light comimg out of the grape is orange . Taught to me by a painting teacher

Becky, This is looking really good. You did a wonderful job saturating those colors. Really lovely. If I had to find something to comment on, and this is digging deep, and getting into the weeds – on your beautiful flowers, you could vary the line around the edges of your petals a bit more.

Great idea, Maureen. See you then.

Congratulations Becky! This is so beautiful! The form on the lemon is wonderful and you did not lose the vibrant colors! And those leaves! Soooo good!!!

Thank you, @pgthompson and @wendy! As for the tomato, I think the texture is off. It looks almost fuzzy instead of smooth. I’ll bring it (the drawing, not the tomato) with me to the workshop.

I love this Maureen and I think your tomato is awesome! What don’t you like about it?

We went away this weekend and the hotel had a beautiful pomegranate tree. It was 115 out so I only used colored pencil (and a lighter paper that I had travelled with). I found it much more difficult with just colored pencil. I welcome any feedback – thank you.

Thank you for your previous comments @pgthompson and @doug-milne – I think this one is one. I welcome any other thoughts! I’m working hard to improve, especially my leaves. Thank you!
