The Flower Year.....September

Another page from Leila Duly's beautiful book 'The Flower Year'. I just used coloured pencils for this one.

Another charming illustration from Leila Duly's 'The Flower Year'.  Polychromos pencils again.

The Flower Year....Hellibores

I'm colouring all the images in Leila Duly's 'The Flower Year' in realistic colours (in keeping with the realistic and botanically correct style of the illustrations).  Hellibores are quite difficult as they are such muted colours, but I think I managed to achieve a fairly lifelike look. I used Polychromos pencils.

The Flower Year....January

First month page in 'The Flower Year' by Leila Duly. I just used coloured pencils for a quick and easy start to my colouring year.
