Terry's Flowers

Yesterday, Terry ran to Publix to pick up a few items we were out of.  Upon return, he surprised me with a bouquet of flowers with Autumn colors, including various mums, carnations, whatever the purple/blue flowers are, and tiger lilies.

With this sketch, I thought I would sketch a few of these flowers with "brush" rather than pen and ink. 

One of the things I've noticed when I don't use ink is the fact I want to fiddle with the brush.  It takes me longer and to me the results often feel "stiff."  Plus the sketch looks naked to my eyes after all this time using pen/ink and watercolor.....lol.  But it was a change and that helps keep me motivated.
