@doug-milne I’m sorry about the image not attaching… here it is again. I’ve been working on leaf drawing after Wendy’s tutorial video and have framed this for my husband. The contrast isn’t quite right… I always seem to have REALLY dark and REALLY light and it’s not quite natural, but I love this one anyway. 🙂 Feel free to give any improvement advice. 🙂
Wonderful! Your toning is so nice and smooth, and you got a really nice range of values. You achieved beautiful 3 dimensional form with those leaves, which can be really difficult. Is this colored pencil or graphite?

This reminds me of Lara Call Gastinger’s work — I’m a super fan of hers so that’s high praise 🙂

@pgthompson thank you Pam. It’s graphite. 2B
