Digital Art_2019. White Protea
Hi friends!
Yesterday I decided to draw the flower called protea (to one art contest).
Protea is a delightful flower, one of the symbols of South Africa, also called the African rose.
There are very many kinds of these flowers and they are many different colors.
I choosed to image white protea.
To my great regret I live in the Northern hemisphere of Earth, therefore I can't to see this flover in live nature.
But it's great to that there is internet & Photograpies in Google.
So beautiful nature creature I choose for the reference.

This is absolutely stunning! You have some mad skills, and this artwork is breathtaking! Kudos to you for providing the link to the reference image, too, for comparison purposes and to prevent the threat of being blacklisted if someone recognized the image!
