Laurie, I love the beautiful simplicity of this composition. It’s a really lovely drawing. You are handling those overlapping petals nicely. I think you could push that 3-D form a little more by darkening the crescent-shape/core-shadow area some more, and maybe lightening up that main highlight a bit. I really like the point of view. It looks like the tulip is hugging itself with those outer petals. So cute!
