Flourish

Finally, after a few months I'm making a new posting!

I think portraits are the most difficult things to draw/paint, not only because of its complexity but it's also very difficult to capture emotion.  Inspired by other fellow artists I decided to try new art mediums, pencils/color pencils/inks and water colors, after failing terribly at painting a portrait with acrylic.  I first started drawing something that has been done before in my family, my grandmother.

Then I decided to draw my niece from a picture I had taken of her previously and incorporated a flower to represent how beautifully she's been flourishing as a young lady.  Hope everyone enjoys it.
