Aw man, you do so much better work in charcoal than what I do. I just started taking an Analysis of Form class at AAU and I'm no where near as good with using charcoal. It's my first time really, so I need to get used to it. You have a really good eye for composition in this piece. There doesn't seem to be any tangencies in the drawing, and there's a nice variety of shapes and sizes. You did a really good job constructing the shapes, and your ellipses seem to be fine. Though the top ellipse of the tea cup seems to be a little pointed on the left side. Also, your use of the five value system is really good for the object holding the fruit, and the bottle. But I don't really see anything other than light tones and maybe some highlights and reflective lighting on the other objects. Your cast shadows both on the objects and on the surface are also fine. Great job overall.
