Great idea with rocks and grass. As well as the idea to put that cute turtles down there. The water is the only thing that disturbs here as it doesn't look as realistic.
You have great color use in all of your work. I really love it here. When someone gets past that hurdle in their piece, the work really comes alive. I'm gonna keep striving to master the art of picking the right color spread.
I'm going to agree with Cure here. Every piece I've seen by you as of late has been a vast improvement from the last. If you keep it up at this rate, you'll be placing consistently in the top ten each month. Good work!
