Sunday Smiles and SITAR - Rose Leaf

 


I painted a rose leaf for you today ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in watercolour pencil outlined with an acrylic marker.

  1. A rose leaf painting is such a wonderful idea. Most of the time there are the blooms only. But the leafs are interesting too in my opinion.
    Have a fine weekend. Greetings by Heidrun ❤️

  7. Your art is pretty
    Rose leaf drawing was often done in middle classes and I would find it easy

  10. Art is seeing the beauty in the "mundane" things - like the leaf instead of the rose.

  16. I had to go outside to look at my rose leaves after I saw your painting. I couldn't have even told you what they looked like. I guess we spend all of our time eye balling the rose itself. Very nice painting and an eye opener for sure. Now I will be looking at the leaves of all of my flowers :)

  18. I love how you continue to draw and paint. I haven't picked up my paint brush in such a long time. You might inspire me.
