Exercise: A rose by any other name
I copied this picture from Wikipedia as a part of my research for this exercise. I am going to draw a few more detailed sketches based on my pink flower unfortunately I have no knowledge about the name of it.

I am going to do more drawings based on this flower I had at my home.
I got inspired while watching Chanel Haute Couture Spring
Summer 2015 Fashion Show on You Tube. The colours are really beautiful contrasting
with bold white background. Another reason why I mentioned this fashion show is
the shapes of flowers and the line is sharp and simple. This is wonderful
inspiration for my project. I will
design my illustration based on similar idea.

I wanted to add some of the Chanel glamorous to my flowers
therefore I used my glittery watercolours to paint them.
day two
Today I would like to try something new with my illustration
using the Photoshop. I am terrible in making comments while I use this computer
program. All my thoughts are hard to put
on paper while I work on the illustration as is easier and quicker to change
the concept on the computer but hared to remember why I made the change. I do
not have any problems to make a comment when the illustration happens in
organic way, when I do remember why the line or a dot I made happened to be in
one or another place on the paper. I am
such an old fashion artist in that respect :)

It was nice to experiment with this illustration. I do not
know if I managed to make any progress however I used one of the techniques
gained from previous exercises. I scanned my illustration then I worked a bit
on that with Photoshop, next step was to print it out on A4 paper to be able to
work with black pen on details. This is how it looks like as a finished
illustration.
I took an inspiration
for the background from Chanel greenhouse from fashion show last year.
