Christmas present commission

I had to put the meerkats to one side for a few days so I could get on and do Orchid, for a Christmas present.
I have used a very limited pallet, it didn't really call for lots of colour and she looks like a monotone.
Pencils used: Karisma, indigo, goldenrod, burnt umber and a little pumpkin red in the eye.
Paper: Fabrianno Artistico HP
Measures approx, 10" x 8"



Now, back to the meerkats which is almost complete.
