      @Eugene-Tan Hello, I really like this colour palette and the moodiness and style of this painting.

      Thanks! Still experimenting with colors and hoping to settle with something I'm comfortable with.

      @Eugene-Tan this design is awesome! I like the color choices and shading but I think you can push them a but more to make the subject stand out. I hope you don't mind, I did a quick mockup and included greyscale versions and histograms for each to show the range portrayed

      That looks...alot better than my own efforts. Dang, lol.

      I was struggling with the contrast and that definitely shows how much of a difference it makes.

        @Valerie-Light Elementary, my dear Valerie. Thanks for the kudos.

        @PenAndrew Thank you! I'm definitely a details person, but trying hard to be more selective about the which details.

        @aurelia Thank you!

          Here is my entry into this months Critique Arena.

          My treehouse comes with a Slime Room (which gets a bit messy), a Surveillance Room (to spy on the family), a Time Machine, a Drive-In Cinema and a large ParaSailing Blower.

                Johanna what is this? The thing on the top that your arrow seems to be pointing to. Is it a cup?

                    @aurelia thank you! I did have to resist drawing some little round pandas, it was tough! Glad the bite marks made sense.

                        @PenAndrew Thank you. I was looking at some bamboo structures for research for this and some of them are really impressive!

                            @AngelinaKizz I like the fungus and the fish one. It’s going to be a tough choice. The loose style for the fish is really nice.

                                @PenAndrew Yes, it's a cup:) More specifically, it's a steaming beverage atop 3 books and the whole thing is a neon sign letting folks on the train know that there's tea and books to be enjoyed if they stop at this treehouse. The arrow is actually meant to show the direction of the train, so I will probably move it somewhere else in a later iteration to avoid any confusion. This is why I should probably give myself more time to share my work in the forum before submitting (sigh), but I tend to leave it to the last minute.
