Late update

Haven't really done a lot as of late (again) But I did do a pastel a few weeks ago and working on a few graphites. The daffodil (which I unfortunatly did on sketchbook paper), japanese maple, and pastel candies are not done yet. The japanese maple is coming along well I think and the tree stump I am very much happy with. I think my goal of obtaining realism in my work gets closer with every piece I work on. I am really getting excited for a water color workshop next month-so I will finish these by then. Everyone of these except the daffodil were done in the WC! Basic 102 Classes. Will be expanding the daffodil - I was not going to do that-but the more I work on it I find you can accomplish a decent piece on sketchbook paper if you devote the time. Though I will not do THAT again. :)
