Description
Pastel on a sandpaper. Rhodies are so different in texture one from another. We had close to 400 different rhododendrons. The leaves on some are slick and glossy, on others rough like old weathered leather. Hopefully I can get the different textures right, to give the flowers their justice.Related content

You are so good, I'm just your...fan Were you the one writing those chinese characters? I have had three semesters of chinese mandarin. But without practice, I've forgotten how to write many characters

Vauna Vawdrey eat your heart out! Wonderful textures! And, while I think the flower is definitely the centerpiece of the whole thing, given its size and position and brightness, there is so much interesting and impressive detail around the outside supporting it, that it shines all the more. Amazing. A real joy to look at.
