Flowering Artichoke by Carole Swingler

Flowering Artichoke
Comments

Sorry tried twice to get right way up on iPad! Delicate pencil work as I may paint it in watercolour.

This Artichoke like to lean to the felt. And that's that. Some delicate marks in there Carole.

Grrrrr, LEFT I said. That's artificial intelligence for you.

Lovely drawing Carole, well worth adding a splash of colour.

Delicately drawn Carole, look forward to seeing the coloured version. (Quite a few people seem to be having problems at the moment uploading from their iPads. Mine has always been fine, but hope I haven't spoken too soon!)

I've got a crick in my neck now, but I do like artichokes and this is one nice. Looking forward to the colour version as well.

Very delicate Carole, looking forward to seeing it in watercolour.

Thanks all, will probably make a mess with colour but will give it a go.

Lovely drawing, Carole as usual.

Looking forward to seeing colour version. Cheers. Peter

Nice pencil study Carole .

I would be scared to put paint on this Carole, it's a beautiful drawing.

Yes, it would be lovely with some colour Carole, it's a fab drawing.

Nice work Carole. Would love to see the watercolour version.

Thanks very much, I'm working on it, can't guarantee a decent result as not done much botanical work for a while you seem to get out of practice.

Lovely drawing. I look forward to the painting. Did you save file after righting it ...?

Thanks Gudrun. The ipad is playing up! Had to use proper camera and PC for my latest :) Thanks I have it on PC now right way up!

Well, we just tried to use an old USB stick which is not recognised on a new computer!!

We had terrible trouble when we got new computer Gudrun, Windows 10 was so incompatible. Couldn't download photos from our camera for one thing! That's why I usually take photos on iPad.

Self- taught artist, I have dabbled in watercolours for many years on and off. My first love is flower painting in watercolour. Now trying many different media including acrylic inks, gouache, all types of pencils to try loose-ish semi abstract images.
