I did not satisfy the part of the Chinese Roses in my last pen sketch, so, as soon as I finished it, I went to the roses 4th time and to paint this one quickly since it was quite cold and windy. I wanted to record the flower with my pencil and pen there since they would be wither soon, then when I have time, to add the leaves. :-) How do you think of this painting? Do you enjoy it?
