Pelargonium, Geranium, flowerpainting with pastel


I like these flowers. Easy to take care of and beautiful with many colors and features. I made this artwork two months ago from an old photo I had taken. The best is to draw or paint from real life but it is not always possible. Second best is to use a photo that you have taken yourself. Why? Because when  you see the photo you can usually remember the light and mood. You have also made the composition. It is your photo. Of course you can use other photos and pictures as inspiration and reference. But your own is the best in my opinion.
