Love the composition Pam! It is beautifully rendered and the leaves are masterful! Gorgeous greens!

Hi Amanda- the fruits and the leaf are so detailed and beautifully done. It really makes them stand out. The sepals at the tops of the berries don’t look finished in comparison. I would add a little more toning to the sepals and stems for definition. Beautiful job!

Really nice job on the onion skin and apple Sinead. Your color selection and saturation are very good! I notice that you did not use grissaille toning on the apple before you added your color. Wendy has videos of drawing apples using her grisaille technique, which be worth checking out!

This is rendered beautifully Jennie! Nice rich colors! Great job!

Hi Pam- your cherries are starting to have some form, but still could use more to enhance their form. I suggested revisiting a couple of Botanical Basic Lessons on your original ferry post.

Hi Pam- your cherries need a range of toning on them so they have some form. Refer back to Lesson 4 which illustrated the value scale of 9 tones and then Lesson 10 which showed how to use all those tones on a sphere.

Need to fix front/center bract – advice?

Thanks Vern. I’ve attempted some toning Doug. Thanks for your advise on all my work.

Attempted to saturate the leaves Doug. Hope I haven’t lost the light trying.

This is so delicate and lovely.

Lovely!

And I love the additions

Sheila, I swear I could pick those petals up right off the paper.

Wow!!!
