Purple Tulip as a Rose

Purple Tulip as a Rose, originally uploaded by Mr & Mrs Speeed.

I haven't had much time lately for drawing as our little bug has been on the move. All free time is spent supervising little guy as he explores the house in search of new things to bang his head on or sleeping or finishing reading the book du jour (American Gods - Neil Gaiman.)

I did snag a little time that I should have spent sleeping to create this though. Playing with my new scanner, I scanned in a tulip from a bunch I had gotten Little A for V-Day. I then tweaked it into a rose-like bloom in the computer and adjusted the image to give it a little bit of a painterly feel.
