Flower Power Cont.

This will be short and brief but I did finish my small orange roses. I think the green background suits the orange and blue colors well, instead of leaving it plain white. The majority is different watercolor pencils in actual pigment form i.e., you cannot leave it sitting in water or else it will dissolve but you can continue to draw with it wet.

"Avacado", "parrot green" and "forest green" Prismacolor markers filled in some of the gaps. This might make it to my Society6 as a potential print available for anyone to purchase but we'll see.

Soon, I'll be posting more of my work, some ideas on what I want to do and like I mentioned on Facebook (which I will not link here), I want to create illustrations based around nature, underwater scenes, for children, in a book. It's a great goal to see achieved but first things first is actually organizing myself in order to even begin the process of it.

Flower Power

For the past 3 days, I've been working on this small piece that has yet to have a name. I think my schtick is really doing a lot of illustrations and designs by hands because I've been told to have this illustrative like quality when I draw things, and the more I look at some of my previous work, the more I can see it. I enjoy drawing nature from outside my window, in parks, from photographs and get inspiration from that, but it's clear that I have a certain style.

I didn't think I did but I do!

As far as right now, I am far from being finished, but as you can see, three orange roses with blue stems and design circles around. Wanted to keep the piece realistic so I kept the original color of orange but wanted to work with complementary colors. ORANGE ..... & BLUE! The background will be green fully.

Used: watercolor paper, watercolor pencils, prismacolor pencils, prismacolor/rose art/crayola/art performer markers, micron pens, sharpie pen.
