Last week we painted a simple Bird on a branch with watercolor
One of my good friends and a loyal reader, Leslie Anne Tarabella
was inspired by this painting and wrote a special post about it

Let’s play with markers today and have some fun with flowers
This is a different way to approach a subject
This is the inspiration photo I used
First, the simple shapes of the pink flowers drawn with marker
Yellow and peach shapes for the other flowers
3 shades of green for the leaves, stems and foliage areas
and it’s starting to look like something!
Gray lines for the vase
Flower petals and centers were drawn with a .05 fine liner pen
Yellow roses
Peach petals
Leaf shapes and scribbles
Letting the liner pen be loose and going outside the colors
into the white adds interest and vibrance
Then I added blue for water in the vase
More scribbles, squiggles and lines to finish
“Scribble Flowers” 9″ x 12″ alcohol marker and ink on mixed media paper
Have some fun with color, shapes and scribbles
Be Fearless!
