I took this photograph of these spring flowers at Descanso Gardens. They were growing on a tree on the outskirts of the gardens. I'm not sure what they are, but I thought they were very pretty. I hope that you will enjoy this photo!
I love to paint flowers, you may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.
===========================================
Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden. She has long flowing hair and a wary expression... I think she is most likely a fairy angel, although she could also be a mermaid or a goddess. I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.
I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in September. This is day 12.
I am also participating in the September 29 Faces Challenge! The goal is to share 29 faces in the month of September. I think I will try to extend it out to a goal of 100 faces sketched on consecutive days...
This is a rough sketch.

Beautiful spring flowers and pretty maidens today Lisa!
no idea what the flowers are called but they are very pretty :)
more lovely maidens :) you could do a series of maiden goddess's :)
Someone is feeling inspired. These are lovely.
Gorgeous flowers, they look like Japanese cherry blossoms. Love the sketches, too. Hugs, Valerie
Olá, a imagem das lindas flores é de bom gosto, o esboço da donzela dos olhos grandes está admirável, seu dom criativo é perfeito.
Continuação de boa semana,
AG
The photograph of these spring flowers is gorgeous! Nice blossom.
It is a pity that we have fall now...
Thanks very much Christine, Jennifer, Martin, Valerie, AG, and SHON! I am definitely trying to do a Greek goddess series, but it's coming along at a very meandering pace...
What a wonderful colour these flowers are.
All the best Jan
Your flower picture is so beautiful Lisa! And, I LOVE your maidens! Wow! Big Hugs!
