A lovely depiction of a black ant.You have conceived it and drawn it well. The light and shadows, colours, and composition have worked out well. Good luck!

This is a wonderful traditional art rendition of an ant in action, collecting. Great clear and defined details. Well balanced and interesting piece of work. All the best in the contest!

This is a great visual of the black ant after its prey. The detail is extraordinary and real. I'm not sure what the prey is, but I'm sure it's another bug .Good luck in the contest.

A beautiful Pastel drawing of the Black Ant busy searching for food for its colony. Created by your artist's eye for composition very skilful draftsmanship, beautiful choice, blending & application of your colours in bringing this Ant to life on your canvas.

This look like a masterpiece. I like the textures of the legs as well as the bulky eye of the black ant. The green background really made your character to stand out and it created a strong and beautiful contrast. /setting is realistic. Excellent drawing and painting techniques, realistic concept and framing.

Maureen this is a fine example of a foraging ant. I like the colors and the features of the ant. The proportions work well. The best of luck in the contest. Ray

A good looking nature image posted here, together with interesting notes! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of that insect, hard at work. Colours, textures and tones are good. Nicely drawn!

This is a good one for the contest,you have managed to make an ant look fairly gruesome in this and that could not have been easy,art is not my thing[only because i was useless at art in school]but can sometimes see when its done well,good one....Brian
