Ideas and mulling them around

I am experimenting with these flowers
which I might put in a collage
what do you think?  I wanted
them not to look perfect, which
I think I accomplished (lol).  The leaf
was an extra I threw in just to
try a different style.  I don't
like it as much as my other ones.
What do you practice in art?

  1. I think the flowers look good and they would work in a collage. I actually like the big leaf, too.

    Several years ago I painted lots of what my friend called fantasy flowers. They weren't necessarily realistic looking. I still like to draw flowers, and of course, faces. But I don't practice nearly as much as I should.

  2. I cut up some of my practice pieces to use in atc's. I've been known to remove a 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 inch section from something really big because that's the only piece I like.

    Your flowers remind me of rubeckia, especially "golden glow." Lovely!

    Mostly I practice drawing the human body, I have much trouble getting the human body to my liking.

  6. i love how you did the leaf. the black and white around the edge is really different. creative.

    i don't have the patience to practice. that's why i never took that ballet class as a child. when i saw what they went thru just to do simple steps. i just wanted to do it.
