Carla Sonheim's class - 2014: Year of the Fairy Tale - Fairy Tale #2 - drawing 100 flowers

Draw 100 (imaginary) flowers?
畫 100 朵花（想像的花）？



Before I can post my attempt on spot illustration for fairy #1, the second fairy has been kicked off and works were assigned.  While I am still hesitating to produce the scenes I like for the first story, the assignments for the second story shared my attention quickly since I don't want to be too much behind the class.  The work started with doing a serial of flower drawings - 100 small pencil studies on flowers!  A hundred of them!  If I don't move on I will be off the track so I walked away from froggy for now and am hitting the trace paper with all kinds of reference for flowers.
我在第一個童話畫出滿意的焦點插圖之前，第二個童話的課程已經開始，也派出作業了，雖然還在琢磨著第一個童話的場景，為了不落後太多，還是要很快地分心到第二個童話故事的作業上。作業一開始就要我們畫花，用鉛筆描繪出 100 朵花！100 朵耶！這樣如果我還不快點進行，就會跟大家脫軌了，只好暫時離開青蛙故事，拿著各種花的參考資料，在描圖紙上埋首畫花。

I am drawing 10 flowers each time and only on the set of the third round I am feeling more content with the outcome as this picture.  Seventy flowers to go, what a challenge!
每次畫 10 朵，一直到這張照片上的第三組成果，才感到比較滿意。剩下 70 朵要畫，還真是挑戰啊！

This is my first time participating art challenge online.  I signed up in Fall Fearless and Fly on Artists in Blogland and expected myself to take the challenge and made some good move for my art development. I caught up the second challenge given the following prompts. Headline Prompt :  Taking a Chance:  When did you take a chance or a leap of faith?  How did it turn out?  What did you learn? Color Prompt :  What color do you like least? Use it! Quote Prompt :  "Don't refuse to go on an occasional wild goose chase -- that's what wild geese are for." Anonymous It appeared to me that the color prompt was easier for me to start up.  I wasn't thinking much about the headline and quote.  I wouldn't say that I dislike a certain color.  It is rather that I have less control over some of them.  Orange was the first color came across my mind and I always have hard time matching it with dark blue like Persian blue.  That was how I got there.

The picture was done after my being lazy for quite a while.  I was trying to draw this flower in colors combination that I rarely use or am not too comfortable with.  Cool color tone is always challenging for me.
