The next six flowers I worked on for this drawing were the last two pink flowers, and half of the purple flowers.
This pair of pink gerbera daisies was the seventh plant I colored in. I used four shades of pink to do the job.
Next I colored in the pink amaryllis petals with two tints of light pink, a reddish pink pencil, a dark red, and white. For the stems and leaves, I used two shades of green.
Here is the completed pink side of the bouquet! Now, on to the purple flowers!
I did a large peony bloom in a pinkish purple to transition between the two colors. I used three shades of green for the leaves and white, three shades of purple, two shades of pink/red-violet, and a dark red pencil for the petals.
The protea flowers are similarly colored. I used three shades of purple, magenta, red-violet, dark red, and two shades of green.
Next, I worked on the light purple flowers. These little chrysanthemum plants have white and four shades of purple on their teeny tiny petals.
This lavender springs use the same four shades of purple and white - plus three shades of green for the stems and leaves.
And now I'm at the halfway point! Twelve flowers are done; twelve more to go to finish off this colored pencil bouquet!
