Vase with tomatillo

[CindyMoonMcKee]

I'm sorry for the fuzzy pic. I only have my cellphone camera.
Derwent Lightfast pencils. I used a plywood board behind the paper so I could get a grainy look.

Very nice. I particularly like the apple. What a good idea to use the plywood board !
Cheers,

Yes, that's a clever use of plywood! I do wish you had a better pic; I'd like to see the detail on the tomatillos. Looks like you handle the folds of the table cloth. I like it!

So nice, Cindy! I love seeing that tomatillo sitting in the vase, and the soft glow of the vase itself. Just beautiful! I agree with Lamar on the folds of the tablecloth - excellent work!

Another vote for the clever use of the plywood to get that added texture. I must steal it! (The idea, not your plywood.)

Lovely. The shadows are very nicely done. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Great idea, and what a beautiful result. Sorry about your blurry image, but it still looks like a great work of art.

I admire those who can handle CPs to this level …. Nice work!
…. and I learnt something new …. first I’ve heard of tomatillos!

Tomatillos are popular in the southwest. This is beautiful work! A smart tip, too, and thanks for sharing.

Beautiful. The plywood gives it such an interesting texture too

Nice rendering of the subjects. Would love to see another one similar to this but without so much space around the subject, I like the texture of the background and the colors look good together I’d just like a closer look At your beautiful strokes on your subect.
