            Demi, great work on the oak leaves and shiny acorns. The contrast on the acorns makes them pop!

            Christel, how wonderful you have help from your daughter and granddaughter. Nice to see your work and your granddaughter has some talent there!

            I decided on the almond blossom and did it in gouache in my black paper sketchbook 7×10”.
