Thread: Cello

  1. #1

    Default Cello

    Not sure if I should add anything, as the subject is the cello itself. I'm gift drawing it for a 10 year old who is taking a class in school.

    Beautiful Ron. You really captured the warmth of the wood color.

    I don't think so because I like it as it is, the only thing I can think of is a couple LINE drawings of different views of the cello mixed in somewhere. I know that is easier said than done and it might meas changing the background so they would show but it would be really nifty. Beautiful work Ron.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Really impressive.

    To be honest, for a 10 year old to be appreciative of a picture of a Cello, however good, I find a bit disappointing. Now if it was a signed football, I'd understand..

    If I were to change anything it would be the color of the background from brown to black while keeping the lighting effect on the wall. It would add contrast and focus the eye on the subject more. Much like a dark stage with spotlight on the singer does.

    I'm not sure it needs anything. It's a great piece - the polished wood texture at the base is great, and I only just noticed the bow hanging on the stand on my second look. Nice one!

    Beautiful. I really like the wood coloring.

    On the line drawing it shows the word Grace on the upper left of the main body of the Cello, however I do not see it on the print. Did you decided to remove the name?

    Beautiful Ron, superb. Only one critique, the floor reflection doesn't look quite correct to me. The bar that the legs sit on should have the reflection below it, as per the left side, not to the right of it as it appears on the right side.
