Well then, let's give this a try!

I'm Lyraina, currently studying biology, and using every spare minute to work on my art. Every critique is very welcome!

I'll start with some more or less recent still life studies.
Thank you for looking!

Hey welcome to the kitchen! Those studies look really great! You seem to have a really good handle on form and value. Try looking at your edges a little bit and see where the form could be helped by making them softer, most of them are a uniform hardness.

Great stuff keep 'em coming!

Welcome to the Kitchen Lyraina.
As Nick said, your studies are good in terms of forms and values, but the shading could be what you want to work on a bit. I would also add that your surfaces all have the same texture, so you should try different strokes on some areas to give it more variations in texture/material.
Keep it up
