  2. Hi Vanessa,
    I truly enjoy your beautiful compositions. Very etheral and otherworldly. They take to a good place. The shadowing in paper swirls really make it pop.

  3. Your perspective, detail, and contrast in shading is beautiful. I absolutely love the owl. All three images have wonderful lighting and great composition. Paper swirls has a beautiful 3D effect, the shadowing is perfect.

  4. Hi Vanessa, Your drawings are amazing, the details intriguing. This is a perfect set for commenting on line and rhythm. The Paper Swirls play nicely with the straight lines, and your depiction of shadow is very believable. Nice work. Jaime
