January 5 - Drawing a Day

I normally don't draw flowers or other foliage, unless it's in a generic sense as the background for a scene. Before Christmas we got some pretty lavender-colored flowers as a centerpiece for the table. We've been watering them and, miraculously, they're still vibrant and beautiful almost 2 weeks later.

I didn't use those flowers as a live model, but instead I used my memory of them in the other room. I wanted to create it from my recollection and from the feeling I get when I think of them, rather than making a faithful record of their existence. 

I drew it using pen on paper and then imported it into Photoshop via my iPhone to color it.
