Sunday Sketches


Good morning and my apologies for the delay of getting us up and going this week.

Friday, I posted the beginning stages of my purple cone-flowers.  Here's the completed version.  I'm heading out but will be sure to visit everyone when I return.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!

  1. I really like the colour choice and the free and active linework in this. I also like the dots you've used to hint at lines and indicate the hairy stems. They add an energy to the composition.

    Thanks for sharing and of course hosting this fab get together.

    Best wishes,
    Liz

  14. These turned out really well. I wonder which bit of the plant they use for medicine. I had one in my garden but it didn't survive the winter unfortunately.
