Just entered this image into a contest at Fine Art America. It’s in second place at the moment! Woohoo. I took photos of some spectacular yellow roses awhile back and then used one of my programs to do some digital manipulating and give this beauty a different background! I love the way it turned out! UPDATE: FIRST PLACE WINNER!!! Visit the Winners’ Page at this link: http://fineartamerica.com/contests/best-digital-image.html?tab=leaderboard

Graphite Pencil Drawing: Pansies

Suzanne Schaefer — Wed, 19 May 2010 17:13:54 +0000

Here’s a graphite pencil drawing of brilliant red and yellow pansies growing in my flower box. They are one of the earliest flowers to bloom in the spring here in the Pacific Northwest. I think there’s even one called “winter pansies”, but I’d have to look that up to be sure. And…….who cares? They’re all gorgeous to me and super fun to draw.

Now that spring is here, I’m back to doing flower drawings! Here is a single rose graphite pencil drawing done from one of many photos of the yellow roses in my front yard. It’s too early for them to be blooming this year, but it won’t be long now. Yipee!

Graphite Pencil Drawing: Iris Flower

It’s still too early for any iris to be blooming, but I am so ready for this winter to be over and all the flowers to appear! Here’s a graphite pencil drawing of the blooms from last year’s crop. Too bad they don’t last any longer than they do.

Graphite Pencil Drawing: Roses

admin — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 18:19:06 +0000

I really do love roses, but only as subject matter for graphite pencil drawings or paintings. Growing them is far too tricky (and time consuming) for me. Heck, I do well to get my lawn mowed during the summer! I’d rather be drawing!
