Description
The first of a series of flower studies that I'm looking forward to drawing. Reference picture: [link]This was done using both vine and compressed charcoal on strathmore charcoal paper, a kneaded eraser, and paper towel to blend. Aprox. 2 hours.
Coming up you can expect:
- Orchids
- Marigolds
- Lilies
- Cherry Blossoms
- Snap Dragons
- Hibiscus
- Dahlia
- Bleeding Hearts
- Edelweiss
If I think of any more or get any more requests, I'll add to the list.
As always, comments are appreciated and will be returned!
Enjoy!

Beautifully done. It shows so much patience, the shading is so soft it looks realistic.

Very nice, and beautifully done. I can never do roses--they always end up looking like peonies.
You have wonderful smooth shading here, and the composition is great. My only suggestion would be to lighten the tips of the petals a bit, so they look like they're hit by the sun.
Great work!

Thank you so much for your honest critique and kind words! I really appreciate it.
I actually did try to get it a little bit lighter, but the paper took on a lot of the charcoal and I got lazy

Amazing drawing.
I really love how you make a wonderful values with black and white on the rose, it gives a classic feel into your work. The shading are really smooth and give a soft texture on the rose. However, the only thing that can be improve is the space between the petals can be a little more darker so the petals can pop up more
All in all; I really love your drawings and I can't wait to see more of the flower series, keep it up
