There's a tree frog on the end of my husband's finger, the kitten is Gardenia, a pretty iris and my neice enjoying the pool at Disney World!
I've had some technical difficulties and cannot get my computer to convert them to b/w. Elizabeth

Great job on the kitten Meow.

Here is my attempt, done in graphite:

Ewall, I am doing the iris as well but I haven't finished it yet. I am showing my WIP of what I have gotten done so far. I am using colored pencils and as we all know is very time consuming. Just the bit I did yesterday took me about 5 hours and I am not nearly close to being done yet. Due to having to work I will post it probably after the next challenge is underway Monday or Tuesday. ( I have to work everyday this weekend.) I am using Strathmore 9 by 12 colored paper in cream peach color and Prismacolor pencils.

Hi, I'm getting my feet wet with a challege. I did this really quick but I wanted to try it. I did draw it a bit high key and my scanner scanned it even more high key. I really need to darken it. But for a quick sketch I like it. Hope you all do too.
