Little Iris


OK so I bet you're thinking what on earth is that?!

Well to the untrained eye its just a bit of a blob but to me (& only me probably!) its a purple and yellow Iris, just like the one I photographed while I was out and about the other day (see below!)

I outlined in, you guessed it, Sharpie pens and then filled with watercolour pencils to soften it. I like the cartoon-like effect of using pens and watercolours I'm not one for trying for all out realism!

Unfortunately it does look nicer in real life (the painting) and a lot less blue and a lot more purple, now I'm no artist but it was fun! hmmm what to doodle next....
