Love the tiltle of your work. I think the composition has a nice abstract feel and look about it. It rather basic drawing but at the same time it has stronge markings which draw the viewer in.

The piece is not bad, the shading nice. The display of the piece is severely lacking, there are some tutorials in the forum section to help you if you need it to properly prepare your image for display. Notes would help to better judge and understand your pieces as well. Best of wishes!

this is beautiful! I like the rose, simple impresionists but very graceful. It can also look like other things as well. Great touch on it. i like how the rose is centered in the picture with veins going all around. Keep it up!

    Thank you so much. Many people don't understand it and miscomprehend it. I appreciate your time!
Comment from Papa


Sarastar16, without question this is a highly imaginative and somewhat appealing rendering of a rose. The manner in which you have shaded the drawing is most admirable, although there does appear to be a lot of "dust" and/or "scratches" in the background areas. I also find the rose itself to be somewhat rigid. Nevertheless, I think this a fine and creative drawing.
Peace, Papa

This is a very interesting depiction of a rose... I love the abstract design of the pedals as well as the grainy textured shading on them as well... Great idea... I hope to see more from you!

This is a wonderful drawing, and viewing the pice is very pleasing. You have alot of fine detial in the flower and the vines and the shadowing is excellent, I do find that around the area where you place your signature, is a bit bare and takes away from the overall image.

    I know the s takes away from it, however it isn't on the actual drawing and I can't get it off. Thak you for your comments.

Looks like you had some problem with uploading. I've had my share. The overall composition of this looks really well. I wish I could see it better to be able to judge better. Maybe a little more detailing would of helped.

Very interesting drawing. The shading and detail are good. The composition is okay, needs something, not sure what. I like the way you drew the rose itself.

Comment from gajnath


Hi Sara, I like the pencil drawing of the rose, and it is quite well done. The only problem I see is it is too stiff, go flowery and free. I hope to see much more of your work and that give yourself more freedom of expressing what you feel. :)

It is structured fairly well but I would like to see you do a bit more depth detail in your work. SInce I do raise roses I know there is texture to the leaves or are those the thorns? If they are thorns then add on a leaf or two so it can be understood better. Maybe have one peaking down from the upper left hand corner, where you put your S, and that would fill that void area a bit.

    thank you for your comments. I really don't know what i was thinking when I drew this. It really doesn't look like an actual rose. It's kind of not as complex. I'm not sure what i did, but I like it. Thank you very much!
