Beautifully observed, Carole, and I imagine you totally absorbed in it.

So beautifully drawn and coloured Carole , I particularly like the damaged leaves I think it adds so much looks better than all been perfect.

Thank you all. Shirley so absorbed I have a crick in my neck! Michael the more I zoom in the rougher it gets😂 Very kind comments thank you.

I missed this Carole. I’m late to comment but I agree with all that’s been said, it’s so beautifully painted. Love the nibbled leaf.

Coloured pencil. My magnolia has green seed pods , I substituted the pods with lovely pink pods which I found on garden sites. Not the best work but it was too hot ( my excuse)
