You are off to a good start Elizabeth! The secondary veins are too pronounced in color and width. I can hardly see those veins (especially on the left side) in the photo. You can also see in the photo that there is some highlight along the left edge and the darkest area on the left side of the leaf is along the main vein. I would also slightly darken the outside right edge as you see it in the photo. What a beautiful leaf! Great subject!

Look closely at the veins and let them meander a little bit, so they don’t feel like straight lines as they branch from the mid vein. Great job with your color matching and mixing! And I love the margins of that leaf on the bottom. Well done.
