It’s session 5 already! And we’re now onto putting some detail into the roses. We worked on the two main roses and it is extremely tricky. I think I’m happy right now but I’ll take another look tomorrow. I just about kept the form without losing value in the shadows or gaining it in the lights. And the inside curled petals just about came together.
Here’s where I started – all smooshed edges

We first worked on the big left hand rose. Sharpening up some edges and leaving others loosely defined

Then the right hand rose which was trickier but just about kept together.
And a detail of the two almost finished roses
