Poppies

poppies
Last week I bought some poppies just to draw them. I think flowers are the only thing where I do not favor the color red. I prefer green or green and white bouquets. But then there are exceptions. Poppies are lovely in red and roses too and some more...

Red or not, these are lovely.

Thanks! :) Actually I was wondering whether I should outline (blacken) the lines of the poppy on the left more? To be able to see better which parts are on the inside and which are outside of the flower. Any thoughts?

I think you have the right amount of detail in that flower, too much and it would turn it inside out

I thought you bought puppies just to draw 'em :p
I rarely draw flowers, guess because it`s a bad memory from art class in my childhood, I couldn`t enjoy the drawing even til now I can`t enjoy draw any flowers or landscape D:
beautiful drawing anyway<3

Beautifully drawn - I don't think it needs any color!

Thanks Mim, Steve and Joyce. :)

Joyce, it took me a second to understand your comment. I always read poppies instead of puppies. ;)
