Challenge No. 2

Here's another still life challenge:

Some liquid (any beverage you prefer or just water) being poured into a cup or any porcelain ware you wish to use in your drawing/painting.

I haven't tried to capture pouring liquids in a drawing before, so I think it's a good time to try something new for a change. Next week, I'll be sharing a drawing I did during the past months I was not active.

Meanwhile, keep on drawing/painting!

It's been so long since I posted this challenge, but it's just this past three weeks that I managed to start working on the challenge. It took me about that long to finish the drawing. Those fallen petals were not intentionally plucked from the rose to achieve the desired arrangement prior to taking the photograph. I really liked how the sunshine gave light to the subjects. I think I'm quite happy with how the drawing turned out!
