      The addition of the fox changed the story so now the mom looks startled. Her back leg is up, her front legs seem to be guarding the baby and her mouth is open. Is the fox there to eat the baby? What is the story you want us to see?

          @gimmehummus great feedback. I haven't been thinking of a story for this yet.

          My art director (wife) said something in the theme of woodland, with a couple different animals in the drawing. So I might have to add another animal in the future. Maybe I can change the mommy deer so she doesn't seem scared and add a bird or raccoon.

          lot's to think about now. thank you again.

                  Your final product turned out really lovely! The extra color and shapes added a lot of dynamic, but still kept it readable and calm for a child's room. Well done!

                    I like seeing how you prepared your print for gifting! It came out great and the added touch of the string around the sleeve etc really adds to the presentation. I am sure they will love your gift!

                      Aw I like the changes. It's funny how adding a tiny line at her mouth changed her emotion.

                        Great comparison with the first and final pieces, it looks great in its gift packaging too! I'm glad you kept the foreground trees, they definitely add depth to the piece.

                          @bharris thank you!! yeah, my wife kept pushing for more animals and the colors of the fox and bird really add to the final piece.

                            @Rich-Green thank you, that was my wife's touch with the string. she really gets the best out of me. and they did really love the gift and let me know how great they thought it was. I'm always afraid people won't like my work and then they shower me with compliments, it's so weird.

                              @gimmehummus yes!! once you pointed that out, i knew i had to make her look happy and not afraid. that line and a couple minor changes did the trick. thanks again for that feedback while I was working on it.

                                @Dulcie thank you, it was fun to see how far the piece had gone. i'm always stopping short of the potential and i'm glad i posted it here to get awesome feedback that made the piece really come together.
