Flowers are weird. Draw them exactly as you see them and they don’t look real. You have to mess them up a little because true symmetry is rare in nature.

      I’m working on contrast. This is the most I’ve drawn since highschool other than Celtic knots. One thing I remembered needing to work on is using different line weights. Back then I had one pen and it was too thin to make that look good. I’m trying to make sure to go in with a mid weight line first, then go bolder where appropriate and then fill in the find details.

      But the thickest I have now is 1mm and I’m hopeful that I’ll be able to afford a 2 and 3 mm ones eventually.
