I really like drawing flowers and I think roses are my favorite.
This is a simple pencil drawing, I like learning chiaroscuro, but there is still a lot of work to do, to help me at the end of the drawing I shade the pencil with a piece of cotton! I don't think it's a classic technique, but it works!
The image above is the original drawing photographed with the smartphone. So I had fun adding some filters.
The first one has a sepia filter, so it has a very vintage feel which I really like:
For the others I simply played with the tint and temperature function to get these three versions:
I like the sepia and the blue version.
Which one do you prefer?
Look at another rose that I drew some time ago with colored crayons, there is a little story that accompanies it...
Thank you for stopping by!

Trauma Carnival
I have unpopular opinions on one of my old favorites, The L Word. First is: Jenny is my favorite character. Second: The show was originally about Jenny, her trauma, her broken identity and the way her sexuality was explored as an awakening that brought up many memories of childhood abuse.
