"Roses" Botanical Art 8x10 Colored Pencil on Canson Drawing Paper


My colored pencil drawing that I was working on in the Studio on Sundays, is finally finished and I am enjoying how it looks. I particularly like how the larger leaves have some holes in it made by an insect or worm and it's browning leaves.  A touch of whimsy I think which adds to the realistic appeal to the drawing. I considered adding a small bug on a leaf but that may have detracted from the flowers. I may try that next time. I'm not certain what type of Roses these are but I think they are a vintage old world garden variety type.The drawing looks very nice in it's dark ebony frame below.
