roses, roses, roses....

ive been copying some stuff in pen which i think turned out quite well. sooo i guess i'll try copying for a while to get used to it... i cant draw one off the top of my head yet, sooo.... hm. practice is needed. i was shocked though. ive tried some rose stuff before, copying from a random book of roses we have (why, i have no idea) but that was in pencil and it was only the outline and it wasnt very good. plus that was the first time id actually tried it.
the second time (that is, today) i used pen and shaded them and used a red CD pen thingie to colour the folds of the petals so it looked miles better.

i now have more of a clear plan as regards my school art stuff (only 11 marks left to get...), so i know what im doing rather than flitting about with only an idea of what i have left to do on half of my work. so now that i have a plan with my school stuff, i have more time for my own. so more roses, at some point i guess i'll attempt a koi fish.... i dont know if i dare go back and work on some of my portrait stuff just yet.... aaand i have some old stuff i did years ago which im reworking... im looking forward to the hols partly just to give me time to do it all, lol.


anyway, after that pointless entry, im off to do my hair and then draw more roses. byeees
