Accidental ranunculus.
I was leaning how to use a Dremel today. I tried to carve a circle into a thin piece of wood. It turned into a ranunculus blossom. So I added two more. Then added colored pencil.

Must look at this from far away! Back to working from Denise J Howard’s book. This rainy window took 2 tries over 3 days to get to a point that it looks like I wanted.

The colored pencil pieces take at least a couple of hours. Can’t swing that every day.
So now I’m going to endeavor to do at least a few mins of doodling on days when I don’t have a couple of hours for drawing, to build the habit of daily creation.

Today I played with this:
Snap photos at each step. Decide later which to keep.
Hold nothing as precious.
I’m currently linking the second one best.

Third attempt to draw a photo of a Luna moth by @corryanne.com
I was really working on capturing the glow. This time I used gray paper instead of white, and added a slightly darker background.

Working from the book 101 Textures in Colored Pencil, though monarch butterflies migrate through my neighborhood!

This was my 1st venture into using what I’ve learned from the colored pencil textures book to draw something *not* in the book. Photo by C. Uomini.
It was challenging because most of it is the same color, but the texture varies.

Rusted steel.
Still working from the book 101 Textures in Colored Pencil.
This one used mineral spirits to blend the colors in the base layer, with mire layers of color on top.

In the book 101Textures in Colored Pencil, this one is called Rippled Lake. Seems more lije ocean to me.
I think I need more distance from it to know hiw much I like it. It was fun, though. I definitely like that about it.

I’m fascinated by how, with many of these pieces, one detail suddenly makes the whole thing work.
This is so much fun!

I don’t have the same colors she has. Sometimes it takes me 3 different layers to her 1!
