This plant was under natural light with light coming from above. I tried to adjust the drawing as if the light was coming from the left. I would like to do this drawing again and bring in a specimen inside with the correct lighting. What other things can be improved upon?
This is beautifully drawn Helene! The leaves in particular are wonderful! The problem is the lack of contrast and the natural lighting explains why that is. Bringing subjects inside to draw under the proper lighting will help you achieve more appropriate highlights and shadows which will give you the contrast this wonderful drawing needs.
