I hope it's okay to post a second drawing for the challenge? I have another drawing for the challenge too, is it okay for me to post that one too? It's just that I really enjoy this and challenging myself! :-)

I wanted to say a huge thank you for this amazing challenge because it gave me an opportunity to go back to the traditional drawing and I realised that I miss it very much so I will try to mix both traditional and digital drawing from now on.

The first picture below is a guideline to make my flowers using my non-dominant hand
(I forgot to show pictures as a work in progress...but hey, never mind!)
The second picture above is the finished product - not exactly the same as the first picture but it did give me some ideas of what to draw and where to draw etc. I found it easy to draw using the non-dominant hand but when it came to the colouring in, I found it really difficult as I wanted to change hands often so that I can colour in perfectly!

Yes! The outlining isn't too bad but the shading/colouring is a 'mare!

It's good this is getting you back to using traditional media.

Lovely rich colours - and you were much braver than me to do colouring in. I think it's pretty great for your non-dom hand!

Oh and same here - I'm really enjoying using traditional media as well, for a change. :)

[sexycazzy]

Yeah it's fun doing traditional media - it has been a long while since I did traditional media!

Thank you!
