My first tattoo design! This is a commission for a mother whose daughters’ middle names are Rose and Violet. I’m really happy with the flowers and the overall design, including the heart-shaped violet leaf.
As I was sketching, the violet slowly transformed itself (quite inadvertently) into a pansy but I changed it back again for the final design.
Roses are hard to do. I have tried it in a lot of mediums. It is always hard to get those curling edges of the petals.
Very beautiful! Thanks for stopping by, I just LOVE your illustrations!
