We have lady slippers blooming by our dock, but I’m too intimidated to draw them. I think we should have a group retreat here next year around Memorial Day when the lady slippers are in bloom so someone can do them justice.
This looks like paradise! Are you sitting out there drawing these beautiful lady slippers!
Wendy, that is just gorgeous! It’s at a little lake in the poconos that was turned into a family resort by a group of Quaker friends. They have all kinds of rules to keep it pristine and peaceful, so it’s almost like a nature preserve. If you type Lake Paupac Lodge, greentown, pa into mapquest, you can see where it is. Here’s a link to some info about the place. https://lakepaupacpoconos.wordpress.com And, no, I didn’t draw the lady slippers – I was too intimidated. But I’m probably going up again this weekend, so I may give it a try.
Wendy, did you use the sepia pencil on the right side of the flower?
