  1. THIS IS ABSOLUTE!!!! I especially love the reflection in the mirror. Your ellipses are also well made in my opinion. You might have already noticed it but if not, I think you can run a light coat of 2B or HB on the 3 white stripes in the reflection and blend it lightly. I can see the stripes in the reference picture but I have to look closely to notice it, whereas, in your drawing, I can notice it right away. So, a light coat of black can create the smooth transition. BUT, YES!!! I LOVE IT!!!

  2. I have to agree with Afiwa-BRAVO!! This drawing is divine-the soft out of focus drapery in the background supports the stark detail of the reflections in the tea post and the mirrored reflection is the is intermediary zone.

    I might give just a touch more charcoal under the plate to weight the foreground and give grounded stature to the teapot.
