    Default Crocosmia in bloom

    I started this drawing a week or so ago and posted the beginnings in the Xara Graphic forum, with the intent of posting more examples as my work progressed. However I had to put it aside for a few days and then I got into the drawing as I am prone to do and just went with the flow! (sometimes I am in my own little world when I am drawing )

    So here it is!

    Very nice! At first I thought it was a photograph.

    Thank you so much all of you! I really enjoyed doing this one, I had a photo for inspiration and I did trace a few of the petal shapes from it, but I also kind went with my own kind of imagining of how I wanted the piece to look.

    Frances that is really nice. When you first started this thread I didn't know what to think and thought it too early to judge. I still do because we might not see what you see or what is on your mind.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
