I decided to draw some Orchids
None of my Orchids are in bloom, My first orchid was given to me last July, it bloomed till december, so It hasn't had a chance to rebloom yet. My others are clearance rack orchids & I just got them so no blooms yet. I'm thinking of drawing the three kinds that I have (not necessarily the colors I have)- Phalaenopsis, Mini Phalaenopsis, & Oncidium.
I've already started with the Phalaenopsis, now to find Photos of the Oncidium. I have a picture of the one bloom from my mini-phal before I had to cut it off the plant to save the plant( lowes had it planted directly in the deco pot & it was badly root rotted)

Now to put the Oncidium into the drawing. I have a question, in relation to the Phalaenopsis & the Mini Phalaenopsis how big or small are the flowers on the Oncidium?

yes, this is going to be a colored pencil drawing, I still have to transfer my sketch onto the higher quality of paper first, I'll do that tomorrow. I've got the sketch worked out now.

Thanks! I've got it transferred to a high quality drawing paper, & will start working on it soon, I hide my lines by only using colored pencil when i transfer the sketch that I've made.
It's kinda cloudy today, and I like to have better sunlight when I'm working on a color pencil drawing.
