Plan:

1: Purpose - I want to learn to draw more plants, flowers and nature - I want to learn to be patient and really see the differences in leaves and petals. I also want to learn to be more forgiving and let mistakes and bad art slide.

2: Media - Black pen, watercolour to give it some colour.

3: Schedule - 1 Page a day, however long it takes, at least one thing on the page.

4: Subject - Plants, leaves, flowers, trees, using references found from the internet and using "Making Art Everyday" Prompts by Lisa Bardot.

5: Sharing - Just here

Here we go:

Thoughts about the process:

Well this is the most amount of plants I've ever drawn - this really helped me push past the patience barrier. I still find trees particularly tiresome to draw (except the redwood tree which was my favourite). I found it helpful to add little facts about each one and now I've started recognising house plants and flowers while watching TV. This was a great exercise!
