One Flower and One Bee

The flower illustrations continue. There were some great berries I really wanted to draw, but the sun would have been in my eyes the entire time. On a whim, I decided to walk to the nearest flower I could find. I'm lucky I did, because I found this really cool pink flower (I have no idea what I'm looking at). Even better, a big, black bumblebee landed on my subject in the middle of the drawing.

I have been working at the same place for 6 years now. I can't believe I am just now discovering all of the fantastic nature around the building.

Trying out a challenge to myself - to create "finished" pieces with a limited color palette on a consistent schedule. I am still working out the final guidelines. I think I would like to challenge myself to use a new texture in each piece as well. I've had this unfinished sketch in my sketchbook forever. Even though I'm not entirely happy with it - it feels great to finally have it done!

A Competent Profile

As I start to become more familiar with proportions and measurements for the various faces I attempt to draw, I am starting to wonder how to make a more complete portrait with my limited time. Do I stick to lines? Do I bring a brush and some ink? Which lines should I include? Which shapes are important to represent? Maybe this is a good time to look at the work other artists have done and try to work out some of their methods.
