    Cone Flowers

    coneflower

    This was the first draft in pencil. I copied it from a black and white article about a new variety of Cone flowers.

    Since it was in black and white, I took artistic license with the coloring. I have discovered and fallen in love with brush tip markers. They are easier to use and doesn't make my left eye twitch as when I tried coloring with watercolors. Couldn't get the dang colors to blend right, couldn't find white, then they would run all over cause of to much water.... you get the picture.

    Anyway will have to find another project to do so I can play with my new toys.
