My Art- Flowers: Morning Glory, Hollyhock, Ect.

Hollyhocks (Alcea), Morning Glories, and Hibiscus, ect. These have been my favorite flowers to base my artwork around lately. ***What drew me to these types of flowers at first wasn't the 'main' part at all though....*** It was their sepals. It's the part between the stem and the flower. Typically leaf-like, elegantly hugging the flowers like shoes or a form fitting-dress. In my early art days I was obsessed with that part and made a lot with the sepals as the star or even alone.... Like this one--

*The one above is from when I first started doing digital style artwork.* This next purple one started off a pinkish red. I did it a few weeks ago--

So did this one....

*I believe these multi colored ones are called Morning Glory--*

**Now the next few are the yellow types....**

*I like this one especially because it's quite unique. Sort of a new style I'm working on...*. Let me know if I should keep going with this new style.--

Not sure what the name of this flower is, but it's one of my newest pieces and it's vibrancy I couldn't resist. I just had to add it...;)

Another blue one, but this time it's a free-hand one like a few at the top of the list. It's also from my early digital art days--

**Last 2.... The above is from my early days. I remember how proud I was of it at the time. Lol. Now I look at it and see room for improvement. Thought I'd add it as sort of a window into my history as an artist.** ***Next one is kind of new, I feel like it needs something or something taken away. I am looking for suggestions....*** *Thanks for reading...:)*
