These wildflowers are blooming everywhere now. I wanted to capture them in a simple drawing, without too much detail, to match their sweet and friendly look.

  1. This is beautiful, delicate and bright, and I think the composition is wonderful. I've been visiting your blog regularly - I like your stories and spare style. :)

  2. Thanks, Dan Kent. I'm glad you're a visitor here. Regarding the composition, I wanted to do another version with more flowers, but the little bouquet I picked is too faded today. Maybe I'll gather some more.

  3. That’s a nice layering of drawing — I like the fact that you’ve gone about the two elements of the plant so differently. It shows the thought process. This could be developed as a textiles project…would make a nice cushion cover pattern

  4. They're perfect just as they are. I like incomplete drawings, or drawings done in a hurry. You can get great results because you don't have time to think about it.
