The 5 elements in progress
So far I have taken the rocks and water classes. Rather than doing a whole picture, I have split an A4 sheet into 5 sections, and done small samples of different aspects of each element. Thanks Vaishali, these have both been amazing! Please could I have some feedback on the water section? Thanks, Sheetle

Rocks
Rocks and water (clouds to go between and fire and ether under...well that's the plan!)
Hi Sheetle and thanks for sharing, it's lovely to see in detail and up close like this! Ok:
Rocks - I love the rocks, I know you've worked hard on these and if anything I suppose it would be nice to see more anthropomorphism as a challenge, but this could be on a different painting. I know this is a sampler.
Actually in the 2nd image - having said it's a sampler, it also would be nice to see some more smoother integration between the rocks and the water. Eg there could be some humorous touch even, to integrate it further as a painting, this is in keeping with miniature painting too. As a wild example, a surfer (anachronistic and the only thing I can think of!) surfing on top of that wave and looking up at the rocks above. Or someone jumping from the rocks to the water. Or simply a frog (amphibian!)... or even an overhanging plant...
