rose sketches for a friend

Yet another case where i had my reference photos that i don't exactly know how well they'll work for me.

here is my initial attempt in my sketch book. I never really know where i'm going until i get there


I fully understand how to use color pencils and sometimes they can be challenging but honestly i'm not jumping for joy over this sketch. It's just a so-so version to me.

Not so often i get a challenge of drawing a sketch that seems like a cool idea. My friend Eric wanted a black rose sketch for himself. Therefor i attempted to give him something that was more masculine with hard, gritty edges and i like this one better than the color pencil one. It just seems more fun to do.
