Botanical Study

some sort of acer I would imagine Glennis. I so admire people who have the patience and observational skills to do lovely botanical drawings, lovely.

Lovely drawing Glennis.I might be wrong but is it a sycamore leaf and seeds?

Lovely Glennis, I agree beautiful colours.

It is really beautiful Glennis :-) I cannot believe this has all been created with just pencils :-p stunning :-)

Very realistic Glennis, love the seed wings. Cleverly composed markings on the leaf. You are lucky, I really admire Janie Pirie's work.

Beautiful and elegant. Sound like a really interesting workshop.

Lovely delicate painting Glennis, beautiul colours. Is it a Sycamore/Maple perhaps?

Super work Glennis.

I like it Glennis, looks like sycamore to me, lovely coloured pencil work

ps. Glennis did you use an embosser to get the veins in the leaf? Yes I agree with above I think it's an acer type leaf.

Fantastic work - I think it looks like a Sycamore - we have many Sycamore seedlings and seeds in our garden, but I can be mistaken. I'm pleased you enjoyed your workshop. It sets a challenge, but as I said before your hibs are stunningly good.

Wonderfully observed and drawn Glennis. You and Carole need to get together and produce a book of botanical illustrations :)

Sycamore or Acer it is then - thank you so much for your comments. Thank you Carole, I have answered your question re the embosser on your 'lily' painting,

Simple, yet it packs a punch. Beautifully done, Glennis!

A day well spent Glennis! Superbly drawn and coloured!!
