do not pick the roses

I wanted to try sketching a flower everyday to chronicle the stages of a blossom. I should not have picked a rose, especially a yellow rose. (too hard to shade--it turns the yellow to green or murky.) Next time, I go with a tulip, much easier.

  1. your roses are lovely, nonetheless. if not a tulip next, then maybe a delicious shade of PINK rose? with talent like yours, I'd love to see more roses. Hugs - Davi

  2. Cool idea! Roses *are* difficult, and you did a great job. A tulip would be very interesting, esp. as the petals fall off and the interior (stamens, etc.) remain.
