A nap there does sound nice. They say green is the most soothing color.

This is wonderful - the contrast between the dark green and the bright, clear background is very pleasing, especially due to the way the foliage frames the picture. the detail in the branches in the trees and the time evidently taken individually drawing leaves and the butterflies is staggering.

It did take some time. The whole thing is so simple. You have the shape of the bush and it's deep greens. You have the work of having the light show through. I kept fretting because it was too simple, despite all the work to make the leaves and the sunlight say what I wanted and have the colors change where I wanted, it wasn't complete. I let it set for a long time trying to decide what I could add that would have a chance of completing it. You could say I should have planned better in the beginning stage!! hehe!

Very nice, the colours are very beautiful along with the image as a whole. I especially like how you made the light shine through the leaves, looks very realistic and nice and gives the viewer a warm feeling.

They were the last thing added, but the thing needed to give this drawing any chance at all of being a real drawing.
