Photo in the group The Practice of Botanical Drawing Discussion Board 8 years, 5 months agoVern, I’ve varied the greens a bit more, even a little indigo, but I feel next time I want to show the leaves kind of 360 degrees the way they really do grow. I just didn’t get started that way. Good learning experience 🙂

Photo in the group The Practice of Botanical Drawing Discussion Board 8 years, 5 months agoI’m going to look at my previous begonia I posted a few months ago. It’s lighter. I’ll lighten one up. -

Photo in the group The Practice of Botanical Drawing Discussion Board 8 years, 5 months agoVern, I’ve been working on your suggestions: darkening, and adding an opened flower. Any other things jump out to touch up? I’m wondering about the middle flower.

Photo in the group The Practice of Botanical Drawing Discussion Board 8 years, 6 months agoI’ve worked on the flowers a little to have flow better visually. Changed the overlap. Should I lighten the petals? Hard to capture the color and translucency…

Photo in the group The Practice of Botanical Drawing Discussion Board 8 years, 6 months agoWow! That texture! And a Goya is…..? Is it edible?
-
Thank you, Carol. Goya is also known as bitter melon or bitter gourd or bitter squash. As the name suggests, it belongs to the squash family and tastes bitter. It is supposed to be full of vitamin C and other good stuff, but it is an acquired taste.
