 'Tribute to the Lovely Tulip'



Thank you Steemians.




For those interested in the details.......


The elegant tulip inspires artists everywhere.  It's very essence of grace and beauty is what an artist seeks to capture.  The adventure begins with a photograph of a skye.......and is developed in stages to the finished digital image you see here.

Working digitally presents it's challenges and one of them is procurement of texture of which there are many apps available depending on what the artist thinks is necessary.


Thank you for your interest.


Cheers.

love the way you shaded them from sketch to black and white to colored
I've never painted tulip, confession mode :D

Thank you for your kind reply dear @englishtchrivy.

Yes...even in 'Skye Fleurs' the artist chooses the colours. ^__^

bleujay left you a link over at the pub....of a Steemit watercolour tutorial.....hope you find it helpful

All the best.

Its my favourite flower

Some people see bunnies in the clouds, others see angels or other shapes....you see tulips!!

Love this one too. I enjoy both the colored version and the second one that is shades of greys with a reversed image.

Nicely presented @bentleycapital.

Shimmers like satin. Lovely.

A bientot.

I love this work! Tulips are something special in their forms, they look like mugs ready to contain something good and watch their form on the sky is really an emotion! Thanks to share this piece of art with us ^_^

Thank you kindly dear @silviabeneforti for your reply of enthusiasm.

Indeed such beautiful forms they have.....imagine drinking from a tulip......thank you for the thought.

Ciao.

brautiful work .. boss

Thank you for your kind words @ridoykhan.

Your eyes are magic! I see these funny patterns too everywhere and attach meaning to it. On walls and roofs and the sky too. Mostly human faces, maybe because that's my kind of art.

Art and poems goes good together.......you're such a wonderful artist!!!!!!

Welcome to Steemit.

All the best to your endeavour.

The Tulip is indeed an elegant and beautiful flower to base anything on. I love the drawing over the Sky to begin with because something about the drawing overlapping the border catches they eye. As if exceeding the boundaries is so jarringly unexpected.

With regard to textures, I don't know how famliar you are with layer blending. It looks as if you are :O). I often find textures/backgrounds on pixabay and then experiment with different blending modes and layer opacity to get the effect I want.

But ssh, don't give away my secret that I spend time on my illustrations ;O)

Thank you for dropping by @meesterboom.

Appreciate hearing you enjoy the drawing.....the way it is.......it always appears a mess to me.....^__^
.....yet as you say.....out of the lines.....and that is what bleujay desires to communicate.

The principle is.....Control with abandonment and abandonment with control.....something like that.

Thank you for the information about pixabay.......I shall have a look.

Yes....all these fun creations take time.....one of the fun things about yours is they talk and squeal....so very humourous.

There is a certain something in the first image....which seems to find you from time to time.........do have a look.

All the best to you and yours.

Cheers.

Ha, I want sure if it was a stray petal but on closer look it could very well be a sky fish!!

Good job....
Nice artwork......

:)
