Cyclamen in progress - ink and colored pencil

I'm working on a drawing of a cyclamen that I pieced together from sketches I did from a live plant a few years ago. It's fun paging through the sketchbook and seeing what I might turn into a more finished drawing. I am going to do this one in ink and colored pencil (I really like that combination...) I've got a basic line drawing down and am starting to add some color to the stems. Need to research a bit to make sure I get the colors/shading correct on the petals. Stay tuned for updates and have a great weekend!
