Colored Pencil Iris: Finished!

I am proud of myself.
It took a LOT of erasing to get this as accurate
as my skills would allow.
The original (in Arlene Steinberg's book)
is much better (obviously)...but you can definitely tell this is a flower.
I am into week 2 of Flora Bowley's Bloom True e-course.
L-O-V-E it!!! 
I didn't expect to like working on big canvases as much as I have.
Its still hard to "let go" and let intuition guide me...
but I am trusting the process and Flora.
