Hi Susan- the tulip flower is so regal looking! Adding some details from the tulip (a cut away view, the stamens, etc) would be a nice addition to the composition. It looks like an amaryllis bud at an angle behind. Are you thinking of adding other types of flowers to the page? The colors of the stems and leaves look muted and I think more saturation would help.
Thank you Doug…..this tulip was growing in a cluster of bulbs to include amaryllis, drawn life size….. your comments were eye opening and I should have caught that bud does not belong there during the composition stage! Also, I was having trouble saturating the greens, even using watercolor pencils. Thank you for your feedback.

Beautiful drawing – and I like the idea of adding the cut away view of the tulip very much.
