Painting - Colour Pencil
Description
This original colour pencil rendering of hydrangeas came about due to my FAA photographer friend, Debra Lynch’s generosity. I have not only been graced by Debra’s helpful tips and assistance in my early transitioning to FAA, but we have also become friends. When she emailed me a copy of her “Summer Pom Poms” and said she LOVED my pencilwork...I mailed the original to her and she has given me permission to share the story and the follow on backstory with all of you. I find working white on white to be one of the most difficult artwork to successfully render and I asked if she wanted them in blue or even mauve and periwinkle?...No...she liked them just as they were! So, I printed two copies of this and PLAYED! This is the intermediate version and I leave it to viewer discretion as to which version is best liked. Obviously, the original and hand colored copies are not offered for priced work but here in virtual Laurelland...for PRINT and PRODUCT ART ALL IS POSSIBLE with FAA MAGIC!! Enjoy!
REFERENCE PHOTO CREDIT: Debra Lynch, “Summer Pom Poms”, page 1 of her portfolio...check it out! Thanks Deb!
NOTE: Within the controversial distinction of CP “drawing” or “painting” lies artist definition. My definition: when the surface is ENTIRELY burnished, I classify as a Painting; when any exposed Paper Is part of the composition or background, I classify as a drawing. I render both.

Thank you Conni...I loved the pastel look...but the original white hydrangea was a gift so I played on a copy...only in virtual land!, yes?

And here it is with more color, more detail, looking different, morphing into what it's coming to be! L/F

Thanks so much A! ...I find it so much easier than working large...now, THATS the challenge for me! Ha!

These flowers are lovely and tender, like a swarm of butterflies or ballerinas in Swan Lake! I think that I like best this slightly tinted version.

Laurel, this is a beautiful work of art. I really don't know which version I like best. f/l
