I was reworking an this old image from Bulbs in Bloom (love this set) and decided to use a recent sketch challenge to update this tulip. Original image was stamped in black ink on a piece of glossy cs that had been brayered with a pastel rainbow pad. (Why did these fall out of favor anyways? They create such a lovely background.)
I colored the image with markers and added just a touch of glitter. I used a black marker on the edge and did some layering with DSP.

This is beautiful. The colours are gorgeous and I love the background. But most of all, your colouring technique is fantastic - the image is superbly coloured.
