Until then, more flowers.
I wanted to make the background warm to feel more cheerful and, well, warm. This is watercolor and colored pencil.
When I paint people, I often take a photo of the pencil sketch so I feel free to screw it up. Not that I'm aiming to wreck a painting, but I normally like my sketches and it's sort of a mental trick to know that I have a nice sketch somewhere no matter what happens. Here are my flowers again.
The first piece of art I sold was a contour drawing of a lily. It was on show at the Institute Library last fall. This isn't a blind contour drawing, but line drawings are so much fun.
