Even though I like to paint flowers, I have to admit it’s not my favorite subject. I use this flower project as a practice to draw more flowers into my art journals pages, where there is a face in the picture that maybe wears a flower in her hair. 😉  For today I drew this violet flower, but I can’t remember what my inspiration was for this one. I’ve created using Prismacolors Pencils blended with olis. And the result it’s pretty amazing.  *** Chiar daca imi place sa pictez flori, trebuie sa recunosc ca nu sunt subiectul meu preferat. Acest proiect il folosesc ca practica pentru a desena mai multe flori in paginile jurnalelor mele, unde exista si o fata in imagine si probabil poarta flori in par 😉 Pentru astazi am desenat aceasta floare violet, dar nu-mi amintesc de unde m-am inspirat. Am desenat-o folosind creioanele Prismacolor pe care le-am mixat cu ulei. Iar rezultatul e destul de uimitor. It all started with a pencil sketch and with many added layers of color.  Totul a inceput cu o schita in creion si cu multe straturi de culoare adaugate. First layer of pink color Primul strat de culoare Then  adding a little bit dark one Apoi am adaugat un roz mai inchis Blending both of them with oil for a painterly look Am mixat cele doua culori cu ulei pentru un efect ‘pictat’ And then adding a dark violet for more depth to create a realistic effect. And I think it’s done, I’ll leave it as it is!  Iar apoi am adaugat un violet inchis pentru a da senzatia de profunzime si un efect mai realist. Si cred ca e gata, am s-o las asa cum e!   Pe curand, Cristina
