CHRISTMAS ROSES

 
A bunch of beautiful roses adorns my table bringing colour and light to our dark winter days.  I couldn't resist starting my new sketchbook with them, drawn in grey pen and coloured with Pablo pencils.
Have a wonderful time this Christmas all you nature lovers out there around the world!

Wild Rose Poster

This is an ink line drawing of a wild rose I did this past summer. I was camping at Carp Lake in northern Canada. I drew this in my tent while waiting out a thunder and lightening storm. There were wild roses everywhere and I had wished I'd brought my paints , seems it was their peek blooming time.

This particular Wild Rose is Rosa acicularis, one of my favourite wild flowers to collect and draw.
I  cleaned up the background and formatted the drawing into a poster in Photoshop Elements.

Also just re-launched my blog it is now www.lauraashtonartist.blogspot.com please stop by if you have a chance.
