I desperately need help. I need this is image to be as photorealistic as possible, but I just cannot get passed the loose level. I'd appreciate if you could give it a try, although advice would also (of course) be welcome.

This is homework, and the marks will be based on the idea, so I would not be cheating, but it needs to be presented as polished as possible.

Just so you know what this is about, it is supposed to be an opis (big advertising poster) of a natural park where kids (3-11) would go and play prepared activities lead by counselors. The (imaginary) park is divided in 4 zones: gardens, water, rocks and deep forest, and the kid's drawing in the paper is its logo. The scratch on the wooden bark is where the typographic logo goes.

I am somewhat satisfied with the idea, but I just cannot push it beyond. Any help would be tremendously welcome. What do you think?

Well, I'd like to help ya, but I'm not 100% sure what it's supposed to be. I can tell it's like a little kid's drawing or something with some water in there, but the perspective is a bit strange.

Perhaps you could explain?

I guess that is what I meant with loose style ^_^. Ok, it is supposed to be a zenital "photograph" of the ground somewhere in that park. In that portion of ground there is a piece of a tree's bark, with some part of it carved down making place for an engraved logo I'd add later. There are also some flowers, stones, some grass strings, a little water from a passing by river, and simple humid earth as in whatever woods's soil you might think of. Forgotten in the middle of that, a bit eroded by natural causes the re is a pulled of page of a notebook, one of those with spirals on it, with the drawing of a child, which happens to be the pictorial logo of the park too. And that is all I think. The POV is intended to be 100% perpendicular to the ground.

Thanks a lot for the interest BTW
