So beautiful! It calms me to look at it. I love the touches of yellow in the buds. Promise of thing to come! And so delicately drawn! I also like the attention you have paid to the reproductive aspects of the flower. One thing I’d mention is that I’d like to see the warm shadow of the top petals brought down into the tube part of the flower just a bit. It goes green, no doubt, but seem disjointed. Especially the bottom petal sitting next to the tube. The only other thing I might work on is the stem. I’d like to see a more distinct tubular feel. Highlight and shadow.
Beautiful drawing, Elizabeth, such an elegant rise and feel to it, beautifully serene. I second Katy’s feedback, and agree that you have a wonderful drawing and composition here.
