Ok, so it still doesn't look like much yet. I'm laying in a dark umber wash to set the deepest shadow areas and develop some form to the flower. Every time I get a little bored with the one color I dink around a little with some of the potential colors I think I want to use for the highlights. This is a full 22x30" sheet of stonehenge paper. People always think I'm nuts to do such large paintings in colored pencil. What can I say, they're right. But, it gives me the time to be fully immersed in the subject, time disappears.
