You really know what to do with colouring pencils! Gorgeous flow of movement and plenty of detail here too. Some parts of the flower, especially the stalks in the centre, could do with a little more definition, but aside from that, this is beautiful!

that is beautiful!! Your work of art with color pencils is very interesting and amazing. ._. am still trying to get better at my own skill with them. I think the white background makes the flower stand out really good.

Really pretty flower!
Critique you requested:
1. Top right flower bugs me a tiny bit, a little blunt.
2. Would be REALLY nice if cropped from the left a bit, making the focus points the middle and the very nicely done bottom right.
This next one isn't a critique, but ever since my bio teacher mentioned that flowers are the sex organs of plants... I'll never be able to look or SNIFF a flower again!!!

Many thanks!
1. Yeh, I kinda see what you mean
2. Ah, I kinda added the border after I'd finished the entire drawing, because it looked like the flower was floating in thin air. So I couldn't do much about it, although I quite like it like this
lol, that cracked me up! But flowers smell sooo nice!

I've said this in another's comment, but it would fit here. The human eye picks up the things in the top-left of our field of vision (Approximately 5/8th down a given page), so that is where you want to focus the meat of any drawing, photo, shape, anything. The top right of our eye is the natural blind spot (there are tests on the internet, it will drive you crazy once you notice it!) and the bottom left, by definition, is not seen as an important location for us to find predators. We are made for upper-threats. Love that whole evolution thing, eh? Still a very nice flower. Flower or plant sex organ, it is still pretty.... Now I feel dirty I'm looking at plant pr0xn!

Wow! You know I love lilys and this was definately fun to draw. Also, I'm in a bit of a coloured pencils hype, so I'm pretty much addicted to them right now. I used a few metallic pencils so some bits are a little glitzy. Thank-you so much for your kind and meaningful thoughts.

Aww, drawing again huh? It seems you're developing quite a love affair with pencils

I loves colouring pencils! hehe, I think you must be tired of me saying that

Oh not at all, don't forget I love them very much, too.
It's very pretty, you should keep working with pencils... although I wish you wouldn't stop drawing with oil pastels, you're really, *really* good with them.
