This is a really nice page Mary Jo! I like the composition and it is nicely rendered. I really like the red berries with the black/white branch. However, I am confused by the light green area under the colored branch. I thought it might be a shadow, but then I saw the shapes aren’t right. It needs some clarification as to what that is.
Doug, Thanks for your critique. The colored branch started as a blind contour drawing in ink. Then I decided to use some color. I could try erasing the color but don’t think I can do anything about the ink drawing. It was fun doing the pencil drawing with the red berries. Hope to get more drawing done soon. Thanks again. mj
