Last week's drawing challenge for the The Tuesday Collective drawing challenge on Instagram was a pleasing colour palette of red, pink, orange and green. After some backwards and forwards and some designs that didn't quite work, I decided to rework this cardinal design. I created it in a folk style and surrounded it with flowers and leaves.
The colour palette was fun to use once I got the hang of it and placing the images on the dark background gave it drama and allowed the other colours to sing.
