Hi Lee- you are off to a good start! The colors seem good! What is missing for me is the texture. In Botanical Basics Wendy demonstrates drawing a feather on Lesson 22. That would be a good reference in capturing the texture. The cast shadow is a little too dark. I would also expect the edge of the cast shadow to follow the irregular edge of the feather.
Doug, This is my work on lesson 22. This is not a juried art show, it is something I do to relax. If I will be subjected to extreme criticism on every download, I will cancel my subscription.
