Yes! Can’t wait to see the open one! Nice texture and toning, and beautiful green color, Sinead! Something about that shadow under the branch feels distracting to me. I can’t quite put my finger on it. Perhaps the shadow would dissipate before it reaches the chestnut? Because the stem goes up at a sharp angle, I feel like the shadow should diminish sooner…? What do you guys think?
I have an open chestnut to add to this next

You fixed it beautifully – that shadow that was bugging Vern’s eyes.
