Finished Wren and Oak Leaf Hydrangea

I'm finished. I added some thalo blue down the middle ( as a shadow of a branch) to connect the blooms and then added a shadow by the upper flower. I've darkened under the wren with thalo and sepia to help him pop and hit the blossoms with more color even pushing in a little cadmium red medium at the end. I wanted more punch but I think I'd better stop. Tell me your thoughts.  Thanks, Diana

Ps.The kittens have not returned I hope they are ok..and find a permanent home.
