New Flower (April. 9, 2022) – Pink and White Hydranea

…before drawing butterflies in my next art piece I decided that maybe I should do some practice drawings first
Here is my first attempt at a butterfly. I think it is a bright idea to practise first. I discovered that adding colour after using my new fountain pen could be a problem because the ink from the pen bleeds when it comes in contact with water.

…..despite the icy temperatures yesterday I ventured down to lake
I never tire of seeing the swans. Yesterday I brought with me the telephoto lens that fits onto my iPhone. I’m not sure I really needed it but I wanted to get as close as possible without scaring them off.
Thanks to Roda for the hosting theCritter Connection Challenge.
