Welcome to the ArtFeed Anna! The colors are wonderful and I especially like the texture you have captured on the second eggplant from the left. I am confused by the white line on the right edge of that eggplant. If it is to be a reflected light then it is too white and too controlled. You could use an ivory pencil to blend the white line into the…[Read more]

Thank you for the feedback and suggestions.

So beautiful Helene! The leaves and buds are so well done and they really compliment the subtler, softer flower. Superb!

I can see why you found it daunting Helene! Could you punch up the darks on the leaves a little? Great composition!

This flower and these leaves sprouted from a severely pruned bush. To show how nature comes back despite hardship.

Gorgeous Helene! The flower in particular is so crisp and realistic! Terrific!
