Oooh!, lovely! Very Voctorian-Christmas-y!

And the central picture looks as cozy as the kitchen at Uncle Bilbo's place ....!

I love how there's more colour and focus within the gold frame. I love how the outer four pictures are monochrome pen-and-ink-ish pieces, while the colour draws the eye to the centre of the whole thing.

Gorgeous detail and texturing and lighting in the central picture -- the gathered snow on the leaded glass windows, the candles reflected there, the embroidery on the tablecloth, the faces! If you're not a professional artist, Secret Artist, you should seriously consider steering yourself in that direction!

It’s nice that you like it! And I’m glad that the cozyness gets across, since that‘s the feel I was aiming for.

I was actually considering colouring the sketches, but that would have taken a great deal of time, and I thought that they worked out quite well in monochrome, anyway. It’s good to hear that the colours work when it comes to guiding the eye. After staring at the picture for hours it becomes difficult to tell if something is off.

It makes me happy that the details are noticeable, even after all the resizing I had to do.

Thank you for your comment(s)!
