Description
Purple-Blue Iris with rain drops and wild orange red columbine, colored pencil and alcohol ink, by Conni Schaftenaar.
The iris and the columbine are done in colored pencil. I was unhappy with the colored pencil background I had worked around the flowers originally, and a friend suggested using alcohol ink. I have some great brush pens with alcohol ink, so I went over the entire background with a green shade and some dark blue. Now that it's darker, I think the iris and columbines really pop!
