Full title: Pretty dreams (in an ugly world).

This drawing I have been working on the past 3 days. Been one of my most time consuming drawings ever. I wanted to do something colourful to fit my mood sort of. I chose to draw on some rougher paper to force myself using strong colour(this paper takes colour so well and make it very strong, compared to the soft one I usually use), cause I have a bad habit of drawing too light in colour. It could have been darker I guess but still I feel it looks nice.
Reference was my light pink rose in my living room. Needless to say the hair took me a very long time. At first I had made it rather light but decided to darken it in the end, which took me 6 hours in a row last night, not to mention the other days of work.
I don’t think I need to explain the title too much… follow your pretty dreams, though they might seem unrealistic. We need all the prettiness in the world we can possible get

Made with aquarelle colour pencils, without the water that is.
30x30 cm / 11x11”.
