A Colored Pencil Rose

 

I did this one because I love roses and it seemed like a good thing to practice learning  more about colored pencil. The inspiration for this particular picture came from an art book on colored pencil.

  2. This is wonderful, Ramona! But I had to laugh, you're worse than me! Your last five posts have all been in a different medium! ADD? LOL.

  5. A fantastic work I'd say! My mom loves roses too :) Yeah, I am married to a foreign place, very far away from my family, and no doubt that I am missing them all the time. I just need to get used to the change, and once everything is established then I'd be able to go visit home :)

  8. Roses are my favourites, but quite hard to do. You've done well with this one, coloured pencils are addictive?

  9. Ramona, you really got the form on this! I agree, roses are very hard to do, with their curling petals. Love all the colors you used here.
