Calling all Beginner’s-The TROPICAL theme continues🌿 let’s draw an easy “S” tropical composition

When the garden gives you Hibiscus, you draw and paint them🌺
Later we paint them 🎨
Today I am inspired by this bright red and beautiful hibiscus my hubby cut for me.

I’m using a drawing paper (SPiral bound and perforated) https://amzn.to/46WN70h
And a micron pen to draw them in. https://amzn.to/44EmOuk
and that fabulous kneaded eraser to get rid of those pencil lines

After, you can use the kneaded eraser, which works miracles for getting rid of pencil lines, and you are all set to transfer into your watercolor paper.

The composition here is the “Rule of odds.”I used three focus elements and then added in tropical leaves and a few filler buds to create a flowing “s” shape which guides your viewer's eye around your painting in an interesting
fashion.
