All the nooks and crannies, shadows and lights. I have to say I agree with Sarah, that the composition here is the issue.

And you...I think these are some mighty fine rocks. And you're right, rocks ARE hard to draw - something about the texture or colors or something. These are all interesting shapes - the round one is cute.Emma Podhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02879896080093550924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27832321.post-9335847919547568802007-05-23T04:36:00.000-06:002007-05-23T04:36:00.000-06:00YOu know it MIGHT be a vertebrae...we have tons of...YOu know it MIGHT be a vertebrae...we have tons of sharks teeth and other "litter" from the sea like mouth plates, bones that we pick up on the beach at Edisto...all fossilized...and some of them are that brown you painted...most are black BUT a few are BROWNMargaret McCarthy Hunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16043152663750140749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27832321.post-34415577756445591742007-05-22T16:08:00.000-06:002007-05-22T16:08:00.000-06:00Sarah, you're exactly right!

I think it likely makes a great 3d comp, but doesn't work for an image comp - if that makes sense at all? Because without reading your post I could not see these as stones, I saw an abstract object. Of course it all depends on the effect you want...biteyourowntailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15723390742551493277noreply@blogger.com
