Roses ...Just Roses

Gosh I hope I make sense.

it does make sense. thank you!

Bec, I really like your roses, they are different and that is what is great about them. They remind me of a very specific art style but can't think of the name.

I like these. I love your leaves. My leaves are always hit or miss. I need lots of practice.

great roses Bec love the leaves

I've become obsessed with getting these right. here's another try (I also posted it in the flowers thread as my "today's flower")

I have nothing planned for tomorrow afternoon, so I am definitely going to try and perfect my roses. Right now they just look like strange pink blobs.

Bec, I think your roses are very pretty. They don't have to look like everyone else's. They would make anyone happy.

thanks. that makes me feel better.

These are all awesome! I'm again inspired!!!!!!!

PJ they can't really be that bad.....probably being over critical on yourself. Awaiting your post so we can see.

Here is my third attempt. My sister says that it still looks like a pink blob, but I think that it looks a lot better than my first try.

It looks to me that you are on the right track shapewise.... a little hard to tell because the photo a lil outta focus......but a blob definitely not.

Yeah. Unfortunately the battery was dying in my camera, so any pictures I tried to take were out of focus. I am charging it tonight though, and I will probably practice some more tomorrow, so I can get some better pictures up.

Just went through all these they are all great, you've encouraged me to give roses a try
