Ho Maureen. This is gorgeous!! Those colors are so beautiful, and I love the way the leaves twist and turn. That little bud on the left almost looks metallic – its gorgeous. I really like how you handled the edges of your petals, with their ruffles. The only thing that I’m wondering is whether the ruffles on the front petal are as sharply creased as they appear in the drawing. They almost look like pleats of a skirt, and I wander whether the transition from light to dark in those ruffles is a little more gradual. Great work Maureen!
@pgthompson Thanks for your feedback! I was asked to do an iris for a woman I met at my first art walk last summer. I couldn’t find anything fresh so I used an online image created by Wendy as my inspiration!
