Beautiful composition Pam! The flower on the bottom left definitely stands out now. Personally that throws it off balance to me, but see what Katy says. Your graphite work is amazing!!!!!
Dang it Doug. You confirmed what I was thinking. I think I should have made the flower immediately to the right of the focal point. Do you think I should do that instead? Or should I add a leaf or another flower to the upper left?
Oh yes! That really helped separate the flowers from the leaves! And my eyes have more a sense of how to navigate the drawing. However, I agree with Doug. The center flower would make a better focal point. And I also agree your graphite work is “amazing!”
I tried making the suggestions that Katy made. Did it help at all?

I’m thinking, maybe tone down the white of the flower above the center flower. it is fighting for attention. …Maybe not…not sure.
