Again, nice sensitive toning! The thing to work on now is the concept of light on form. With the cast shadow coming forward like that I’m confused about where the light is coming from. Usually for botanical art the light source comes from over the left shoulder. If you have Wendy’s The Joy of Botanical Drawing, check out pages 43-45. She has great instruction on these aspects! In general, think about the light source. How is the light landing on the sphere? How is the light blocked by the sphere? How is the light bouncing back from the table and reflecting on the backside of the sphere?
