Hi Karen- I see what you mean. I think a couple of things would help. First- where the the left side of the top line meets the curved edge it does not curve up to meet the top of the curve as I would expect it to. It even looks like the top line stops just before the curve. All though subtle, it would help a lot to have the top edge curve up to meet the top of the curved edge. You might even fudge it a little and start to curve the top line a little distance from the curved left edge and that would help soften the top line even more. It doesn’t have to be much. Secondly, your highlight on the top appears mostly as a horizontal bar. I would have the highlight continue up and fold over the top following the curve. Following the curve shape is key! I would expect to see the highlight there and it will help soften the curl and emphasize the form. As I mentioned before, I think elongating and widening the highlight on the side would look more natural. It is exciting to see this drawings progression! Wonderful job Karen!!!
