Spring - a photo of grape hyacinth

 

[Terri]

Thank you, Anne and Joy!

Lovely shot of the hyacinth, Sylwia! They're gorgeous.

 

[CaliAnn]

Terri: LOVE your butterfly wing - so creative. The colors are gorgeous!
Sylwia: Beautiful shot of the hyacinth

Here's mine for 'Spring' - a bunch of daffodils I bought myself.

I started off intending to do a careful drawing, but I was losing light, so I sped up and then stopped caring about detail and just had fun. It's size A4, 2B pencil.

 

[Triduana]

Wow Zen, love those colours! Great stuff.

A.J. - there's a definite spring feel to this. I like it.

Joy - this is a wonderful scene! I really like the reflections. It definitely fits the theme!

Terri - beautiful close-up of the wing, lovely shapes and textures.

Sylwia - grape hyancinths are such pretty flowers, and your photo shows some really nice close up detail.

 

[CaliAnn]

Kay: Lovely daffodils - would love to see them colored

Larry felt sure that his vigorous dancing would communicate - nay, broadcast - youth and vitality to any and all of the honeys in the room, but, dammit, why had no one approached him?!

Nice handling of the shadows on the white part of the flower, Anne! White is not easy.

Sylwia, love the hyacinth. Remind me of yucca.

Kay D, love your sketch of spring. Lovely lines and gesture.

Lamar, your Larry looks a bit sad, may be why he was unapproachable. Evil grin.

Anne, gorgeous flower.

 

[Triduana]

Lamar - I love Larry's expression.

A. J. - some lovely spring images rolled into one.

Anne - beautiful! Daffodils are one of my favourite flowers.

Thanks everyone for the comments on my sketch. @CaliAnn - I would've liked to colour them but I'm away from home with only a sketchbook and some pens & pencils. Still plenty of month left though, so I may do something else.

 

[CaliAnn]

Lamar: Love your dancing guy!
AJ: I get Love's in the Air - I think it's awesome!
Anne: Beautiful daffodil!
