Read description.

Crit would be great. Suggestions for pathway? Should I make some actual in focus leaves on the ground? I feel like it's very "blurry" because I just used some scribbling stuff (har, controlled scribbling) to suggest leaves because leaves are a paiiinnnn. I like the tree trunks. And squirrel.

Birthday gift for a friend, giving it to her on Friday.

And kudos to the person who discovers why this is unrealistically natural.

Thank you and enjoy! Have a fantastic day!

That looks very nice. I'm not sure, what makes it look a little weird, but it may be the colors. A bit too candy-ish?

I was able to tone it down a little bit and added more "leaves details" to it. I don't want to really mute the tones too much though, I want it to pop. That's why fall is an amazing season: It has such bright colors. Maybe I could add a little brown though.

Thanks.


Guys, please don't spam. x-x I'd kind of like some actual feedback, I really want her to like this and take it seriously, as something real. A lot of it is suggestive because I don't have the time to do a full-blown perfection piece, but I still want it to be obvious what it is. Do you guys think that this is doing what I want it to or not?

I do really like it, and if your friend likes this kind of art, I think she will like it to.

Yes, that was what I thought, too. :) It would balance the colors.

Thank you!

Added a little brown to it and then some yellow to brighten it a little, brown made it look poo-ey.

Also did more "detail" to the trees. when I give this to her it's going to be a 5x7. The picture you see now may just be a 10x14. Did it on a canvas twice as big so that it doesn't look pixelled when printed.
