You're absolutely right about everything. That teal is awful with the reds and oranges...just awful. And the fish do look flat. They look like what they are; a bunch of flat leather appliques glued onto a flat surface...flat flat flat. I wanted them to look like fish in a pool, but they just look like random pieces of stuff. *sigh*
It's just too much and too little at the same time. There's no sense of composition. Grr...
I liked the maple leaves too, though. I think I still have something there, and making the croggly twisted branches was fun. I'll have to re-visit that sometime after I wash the taste of this one out of my mouth.
