PINK LADY’S-SLIPPER
GRAPHITE
Createacolor, Fine Art Graphite #160
4B, 4H on Bee, 132 Lb. Stipple Paper
Attempting a graphite drawing of a colorful wildflower like the Pink Lady’s-Slipper is a foolish endeavor for the artist but for the viewer it is an exercise in imagination, adding your own colors to the image in your mind.
I started out that day on a hunt for the Lady’s-Slipper and also to see if any fawns were dropped. I found both. That’s a good day.
