I took this photograph of these red orange icelandic poppies at Descanso Gardens some time in May. They are not presently blooming, but I was looking through my images and thought they were too beautiful not to share. 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 is looking downwards with a wary expression... I think she is most likely an angel fairy, 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 October. This is day 18.
I would like to try to reach a goal of 100 faces sketched on consecutive days, I started this effort on September 1st, 2017... This is face 48.
This is a rough sketch.
