The browns are lovely and the “on end” view is very cool.

Hi Marijke, This is looking good! I recommend working a little more on your highlights here and blend them a little more into the midtones; maybe even try some burnishing with ivory to smooth the texture of the paper. Nice job showing where the cap and nut come together, and subtly showing us the pattern on the cup. Try some more acorns, with and without caps, and try to get that shimmery highlight. Lovely work!

Vern, I know that the highlights could be better. I will work on that. Thank you
