Hello everyone,
I feel terribly guilty that I didn’t complete the assignment on time. I’m not planning to list my excuses why I didn’t complete but I should mention that I’m really sorry. It seems setting certain time periods won’t work for me. Future assignments won’t be restricted by time. I was hoping doing this would push me to draw every day, but … You know what happened
Anyways, last night I have finished another piece which I am really happy about. I picked a really lovely Magnolia photo. I drew it by looking at it as I did on the previous ones of this assignment which took plenty of time. When I was confident about all parts looked set, I started coloring it with colored pencils again.
Colored pencil is a really nice media; I am having so much fun while coloring with them. I don’t have a professional set of colored pencils. I am still using little brother Ryan’s Crayola 24 pieces colored pencils. Since I am not completely into colored pencil use, I am not planning to buy a whole professional set yet. Maybe in the future!
While I was drawing and coloring last night, my background music was Coldplay Live 2012 album which is pretty amazing. I would suggest you to try to listen while painting. Princess of China is my favorite.
Here is my final product:

It was a hard piece, there are some little parts that still didn’t really align with the original photo but I am satisfied with it.
Hope you like it! Now there is one more left to complete the assignment. I will try to release it as quick as possible. Then I’ll write why this assignment is helpful. Thank you for your patience.
Have a great day!
