I've gone Dotty.... May Challenge

Comments

Great minds think alike Val, thought I'd give it a go this afternoon, I like the colours you have chosen, I suspect it was a lot harder to do using coloured pencils. Well done 😀

Excellent work, Val. I know this isn't easy...I've never tried this is colour, you've done wonderfully well.

Very clever work Val, must have taken a while to do this. Love your camellias! What's the challenge? Dotty pictures? 🤗

Thought I'd try the May dotty challenge but with a difference. I've used coloured pencils instead of paint for this so it is more like tiny circles than dots. The subject is one of the last camellia flowers left on my bush for this year. Just a bit of fun, thanks for taking a peek.
