Well hello Doctor Watson. You're looking particularly handsome today. I really like the suggested movement in Watson's drawing. I've always sort of liked the Heart-and-Mind parallel of the two of them and so it's a nice touch to have their poses reflect a bit of that, with Sherlock's being thoughtful and Watson's seeming quite 'man-of-action'-ish.

I love the addition of the flowers and, of course, the bees! I think it frames the pictures very well and was an exceptionally clever idea :)

Your colouring is superb and you really utilised how warm colours bring things forward amazingly, particularly with the knuckles on John's hand.

I've got to say: I wish I could draw hands like you can because they're a work of art on their own.

Oh, thank you so much! Drawing hands doesn't come easy to me, but I think they add so much character to a picture that it is worth the effort.
And the bees, ha, glad you like them. I recently discovered my love for insects. ;)
