Oooh those colors! You really have a way with reds! Now I want to see more of the shape of the flower. The colors are pleasing to look at, but I’m not sure what is happing with the shape, which petals are on the outside which on the inside? Maybe a different angle would help. This type of flower, with so many petals, is a difficult subject. Give yourself a break and try drawing a simpler flower. Perhaps a tulip? One of my favorites!

I agree. It was too hard of a flower to try to draw. I appreciate your input!
It can also be fun, Michaeline, to pull one flower petal out and do a study/painting of it on the same page.
