@SaysKat I haven’t, but it’s on my list for this year! I just haven’t come across it “in the wild” yet … and I hate ordering books.

[Valeri Pearon @Rory_Clancy]

@SaysKat Yes. And the book is even better!

I wanted to share some of my thoughts on today's Supreme Court decision on affirmative action:

It’s been a year of creating alongside @ddsaldanha, and I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.

I don’t post as much on here anymore, but if you want to follow along in 2023, head over to IG (handle: rory_clancy).

But I think the center made me feel a little better … there was enough detail in the center and the ins and outs of the petals’ edges that made me feel like there was a little something for my pen to play with.

I’m not sure how to feel about this one because, once again, it’s a simple flower.

Cosmos haven’t been on my radar before as a favorite, but I really enjoyed how they’re simple while still satisfying my need of details.

How do I live in this world in which I cannot read all the books or have all the dogs

[Valeri Pearon @Rory_Clancy]

I don’t usually do well with things that don’t have details, and I usually make the mistake of then adding in details … and it gets out of control. So I made sure to stay scaled back on this one, and I’m glad I did.

This flower was by far the easiest this month. It took me just 15 minutes to finish the pencil layer … and that concerned me a bit.

Flower Prompt: Iris
•
I always enjoy drawing irises. There’s something about how their petals fall and curve … and the shading is different every time, which leaves room for play.

[Valeri Pearon @Rory_Clancy]

Thank you @ddsaldanha for being my cheerleader through this piece. I would’ve probably given up before even finishing the pencil layer if you weren’t gently pushing me along.💗

This one …
These details about killed me today, but it was definitely worth it.

I struggled with this one a bit this morning, but hopefully it’ll grow on me each time I come back to it. Some pieces just need time to sit.

This one was pretty easy going this morning, which is always nice. When it’s simple, I feel like I can focus a little more on details.

These were pretty easy to create this morning. They have such simple lines, which is nice sometimes … gives a break from the intricacies of a lot flowers.
