My first proper leaf drawing. Pretty please feel free to give improvement advice… that applies to anything I ever post. Leaves are so much harder than I realised!
@pgthompson I have been looking at buying some verithin pencils… do you have particular colours you recommend? They are very expensive here and I have to buy them in sets (most of which only have one colour I think I would use!)… Wondering which colours you use the most please?

Beautiful Peta! Gorgeous smooth toning and colors! In this case I don’t see what you could do to make this better.
Yes, very nice. I love the colors and the way you have indicated the folding, curling nature of the leaf. Next leaf try doing a subtle cast shadow.
This is so pretty
This is great Peta. The only thing I can think of to improve this is to crisp up your edges a bit with your verithin pencils. It’s really well done.

Hi Peta, just seeing this question. I mostly use the 70% gray and the dark brown.
