    Magnolias of Spring...

    Here are a few sketches of my beautifully blooming Magnolia in the front yard...  They are also studies for a poster I am working on.  More on that in a few weeks!

    Hi Craig,
    These are lovely.
    Always loved white pencil work on coloured paper ever since i saw a Michelangelo drawing (a study of drapery folds) on red paper. He used white to highlight the folds.
    Were these done with prismacolour pencils?

    cheers
    Eddy

    btw, thanks for your comment on my scrapbook blog

    Eddy,
    I have a big box of colored pencils collected over the years, most are prismacolors though, so I would say this is 90% prisma!
