Here is a sketch of an iris flower.  I usually am drawn to bearded irises, but this iris also pulled me in.  I'm unsure if I'll paint it or not, but I did enjoy sketching it.

I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in December.  This is from day 12.  

This is a rough sketch.

Here is a sketch of a big eyed gothic maiden.  She has an expression of serious contemplation...  I think she is most likely an elf fairy angel, although she could also be a goddess or a mermaid.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.
