Very powerful! You should be proud of this one. Certainly very dynamic and it reads well.

I really like this, great job of the sea, especially the feeling of motion to the waves!

Thanks Dave, my learning has been showing up it seems! I've been using the iPad version which apparently is not as feature rich as desktop version. But no complaints, see if you can add some fan brush option for leaves etc. Great app this artrage, been posting my works on instagram and getting good response! Thanks again.

Have given it a try, silverware, reflections and all. Need to go a long way it seems, looking suggestions please.

Looks like you have the right stuff in the right place. If you're going for trompe l'oeil fool the eye style where it looks photographic, then you probably want to avoid a heavy tooth to the paper because that pushes the look into the area of painterly and faster painting, less "tight" painting. In that case you would want to be a little more detail oriented and look at the character of your marks as saying more about what it's reflecting and describing surface materials.

On the other hand if you want painterly, then you're on the right track. These kinds of set ups generally are associated with trompe l'oeil, so the expectation historically leans in that direction for measuring against.

But it looks like you could go any number of ways with it. And it looks good as a finish too. Just saying for further paintings if you care to aim one way or the other, or run with this look. The possibilities are infinite.

But this is a good solid piece.

Sir, I was just trying to learn the reflections. As per your suggestions, been looking at scores of paintings and photographs online to study the intricacies. Hope to improve further, thanks for all your support.
