In response to your request for constructive criticism here goes.
The shape is good for the top part of a bowl but needs a foot. About where the dark shadow begins a convex curve to a foot about 1/3 to 1/4 the diameter would make the piece more graceful.
Try studying the galleries here and on other woodturning sites for ideas on how to create a pleasing shape.
I also like turning Osage Orange. I often sand to about 2000 grit and leave the wood raw (no finish).
The workmanship on all the pieces looks good.
