IrishWhiskey-Thank you. Yes, gouache is a fun medium. You should definitely do some stuff with it.
Mylqin-Thank you.
Clarisse Silva-Thank you, I will keep that in mind. What you've mentioned is pertinent to what I'm working on at the moment, which I am covering in this post.
It's been a pretty slow start to the year for me, in terms of working on stuff. Let's rectify that!

A painting I finished last night that is quite a personal piece, in terms of subject matter. Patrick was kind enough to give me a very solid critique on this piece, so I intend to integrate what he has given me.
One of the things he recommended I do (as many of you have suggested already) is to work on my values more. He gave me some ideas for exercises to do to study lighting, so here's a quick drawing of a clementine orange under a strong light.

I intend to do more of this, as it's what I plan to focus on at the moment (along with perspective). Any feedback you guys have would be very helpful.
