Hi Harriet, I am speechless when looking at this. It is so lovely and delicate. I have a few questions that I know everyone would probably want to know. 1. Did you use watercolor and Colored pencil or just colored pencil? 2. How long did it take you to complete?approximately?
Hi Wendy, I did shade first with a deep purple pencil to define the form and shadows. Then a single pink watercolour layer and finally lots of layering with lots of colours. I’m not sure how long it took because I am now trying to draw for shorter time periods more often, because life gets in the way and my neck and shoulders stiffen up if I get too intense. 😘
Stunning.

Amazing toning of the flower! Really beautiful.
Hi Margaret, from the looks of all the lovely studies you have posted, you are doing a really good job refining your toning skills!
Gorgeous Harriet!!! Your highlights, form, toning, colors, the list goes on and on! Amazing job!!!
