Drawing - Orchid
September 18th, 2008 - This was drawn from a real object instead of a picture, which requires a bit more interpretation of the subtle light shades and proportions. It was a good subject to draw as the colors and textures are fairly simple.
Analysis - I like the final result, but I think it’s more from the beauty of the subject than from my drawing. In other words it’s hard to mess up such a beautiful flower.
But the shading on the green leaves is terrible in my eyes.

Note - I’ve decided to start posting my drawings to my blog. For a few reasons… To share the art, to stimulate me to draw more, and to keep a record of them all. Click on the small image to get the larger size view. There will be a small flood of posts as I put up all of my back dated drawings, then only as I produce new works.
