And so I'm back.

Its been 7 months and I was almost certain blogland deleted my much neglected blog!
Phew what a relief to see its still here!
Its been a crazy few months..with an overseas holiday,back to uni and thereafter..one project after another...
Off-late though I've been feeling quite creatively suffocated and the demand to churn out ideas non-stop is really taking its toll on me.Its like I needed a place to vent..and since my IT braniac boyfriend won't understand a word or a doodle of mine...I remembered a long forgotten little space..MY BLOG.
So,I'm back with the resolution to STAY this time and even if there isin't anyone reading my blog..I'm still happy to have a space to share my work and feel a sense of creative freedom :)
However,if you are reading my rambles do say Hello and don't be a "silent" blog visitor like I used to be!
I thought it would be great to do a little post on my current "pet" project!


Welcome to my world of botanical drawing!


Some gorgeous native reference.


And it begins..using a simple HB pencil.Its a good idea to map out the shape your drawing.


After about 15 minutes...of non-stop drawing..its getting there!(I'm so bad at photos!)
Unfortunlatey thats all I have for now..i'm still in the process of finishing of the details..I took a little break and decided to blog it..
I will be back with more...
Next up..
Colour mixing..FUN!
