My water color study of a Peony based on Jacqueline Gnott's Instructional Water color DVD "The Queen. I was very pleased with how this turned out. It is sutler then the colored pencil study. the flower fills softer in this water color.

Magnolia

My study of a Northern Magnolia. Used the instruction DVD from Jacquelin Gnott as a basis for this study. From her "My Favorite Things" DVD. I was pleased with all four of the studies. I added colored ink to the pen and ink drawing. The magnolia needed some pink touch to it.

Straw Berry


Sorry I have been remiss.
I have not posed lately. I have been working on my art work however. I also bought a new camera and have been trying to learn how to use it. I am posting a study of a strawberry that I worked on at the end of 2010. I am posting all 4 media studies all at once. My favorite is the colored pencil one. I am not as happy with the water color study. Hope you enjoy this touch of summer.
