Hey everyone! After spending way too much time obsessing over old library books and Victorian scientific illustrations, I tried to create something that captures that 'Midnight Herbalist' vibe. I’m still in the early stages of refining my style and learning how to balance digital tools with a hand-drawn, engraved look. I really wanted to focus on the contrast between the moonlight and the intricate root structures. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the composition or if there’s anything you think would make it feel even more 'ancient'

Hey everyone! I’ve been experimenting with 19th-century apothecary sketches and celestial elements lately. I’m trying to go for a "secret garden" vibe, but I can't decide if the layout feels balanced or too busy. Would love some honest feedback from people who actually love this aesthetic. Does the moon work with the herbs? Thanks!
