Daily Study...Hibiscus

4x5 pastel on sanded paper

Here is my second flower to paint in pastels. I think it still needs some tweaking, but I think it's better than my first flower. I'm trying to paint looser and more painterly. I found this photograph in the wetcanvas library. I seem to want to paint birds and flowers right now, maybe it's because spring is on it's way! I did find a couple more pictures in the wc library of another hibiscus and a poppy, so maybe next week I will work on one of those or both. I'm hoping to start a seagull tomorrow...if life doesn't get in the way!
