    Thanks very much Vernin for all your helpful comments. I am back doing my PhD time so unfortunately not a lto of time! I am going to have to hold the course for a while in a couple of days. I will try and get my hibiscus flower pattern done and posted before then! I also just had the botanical drawing book delivered so I hope to still get some…

      Its a red flowering gum. I just posted my finished one in colour and hopefully the blending looks better now on the leaves.

        I thought the shading was too dark on the leaf on the right (after I had taken the photo and could now see it), so I have softened those dark edges.
