Pink Rose in Coloured Pencil - Part 1

A botanical art tutorial by Emma Tildesley.

A pretty double pink rose for our coloured pencil project this month. There is lots of fiddly bits in the centre of this one, so I have added a photograph of all the shadow areas incase you would like to refer to it whilst working on that part.

Its on the larger side so I have split the video into parts again. Part two will be available at the end of the week as I am nursing a neck injury at the moment and finding it very difficult to sit and draw :(
