Not entirely sure this is done yet, the photo came out a little washed out, the background is a bit darker and colors brighter and more contrasty in the original, I'm having issues with the table so any suggestions would be great!  thanks!

Oh I think this is done; and exceptionally beautiful without looking overworked.

I agree with Joy...very well done, Duende!
I love the colors, comp, reflections and light.

Thank you, I'm still pondering the table but for now I'll leave it alone, probably like most artists, I dwell on what I think is wrong about some passages and run the risk of over doing things if I try to fix it. So away to the portfolio it goes for a little while, then I'll look at it again.

Hi Duende
I really do not see a need to work on the table. The painting is really very beautiful the way it is. Liked the white portion of the middle toy and the reflected light on it very much. The spirals are really catching the eye.

Hey, thanks, what I think I'm not sure about the table is that it's close in color with the pot and throwing my color sense off, or maybe I'm just over thinking it? don't know, away it goes to hide for a while.
my favorite part is the spiral, was interesting to figure out how to do it.

HI Duende

Im wondering about a splodge/small area of wash of colour on the table - could there be an orange brown reflection from the handle, or blue reflection - and could this follow the diagonal line from the shadow on the pot?
