R for Rain ... and Reprieve
We got a reprieve from the rain today long enough to draw some rain drops still clinging to leaves of my Surinam cherry plant. I drew this with a 2B and 6B Faber-Castell graphite pencil on Strathmore Bristol Vellum paper.

FANTASTIC!!! I love how you rendered the waterdrops.
I just looked at it in large format -- pfewwww, those drops are so well done -- they are 3D.
Bravo, my friend.
wow
now this is really amazing.
how crazy to do water drops in the first place (you are brave)and then the results? omigosh - joan that water is just incredible.
applause applause!!!
This is gorgeous. I love the waxy quality of the leaves and how the drops just puddle up in rebellion.
Hey everyone! I'm still grinning with all your beautiful comments! I've always avoided rain drops cuz they are chock full of reflections and tough to render. But, I felt up to the challenge. I'm gonna go outside now to find other challenges to tackle ... like reflections on a lake! Ack!
INCREDIBLE!!! Wow! =oO
Really beautiful, fantastic pencil work.
Thanks Jennifer and Eileen!!
I'm speechless too ... this is brilliant. WOW.
I notice 'stunning' and 'gorgeous' etc. have already been used, so I'll have to settle for fabulous rain drops, Joan.
