Pencil studies after Bellflowers

 So delicate and beautiful this purple or white flowers hanging as little bells!

Here I did some line sketches after two different sorts of them. 

You can purchase them as prints in my ETSY shop, you can also let me a comment or write me if you are interested in the original drawing which might be still available.

"Spring Bloom"

"Flores de Marzo" was the spanish name. 

 I am refreshing my ETSY shop "CATILUSTRE" with some new drawings. It is a long time that I don't update it after having my baby nearly two years ago! I didn't expect to be soooo busy and often soooo tired too! hahaha 👶

Have a look if you need new wallart or some present for a lovely one :)

Rhododendon Art Print

The 2018 has started with some very good news!

From October you could find -and buy- a fine art print of this Rhododendron pencil drawing in IKEA stores all over the world!💪
This is just the first one, in the new year you would find new prints. It makes me feel happy that many homes could have a beautiful botanical print from me, drawn with loads of love 😌😍
And I am so thankful to Ann and Rachel from Artpress who believe in my work and made this happen! 💖

Kornblume aus den Taunus Felder.. ein Stück von Sommer für diese Wintertage.
Sie sind so delikat und schön und es ist so schade zu hören dass sie nun in Gefahr sind, wegen der intensif Benutzung der Herbizide! oh Mensch, was tust du der Erde!

Cornflowers, a bit of Summer in these Winter days. 
I picked them in a corn field -the place to be- in Taunus last Summer. 
They are so delicate, soft and beautiful... and so sad to hear that they are now endangered
because of  the massive use of herbicides!

Physalis - Chinese Lantern

"Physalis alkekengi" is the latin name. They looks exactly like paper lamps. I am sure it was the inspiration for them! They have a so incredibly intense orange, it is hard to believe they are real, thanks God of Nature which gifts us with all those things..

Physalis o Linternas chinas, se llama esta planta con flores como de papel de naranja intenso que guardan una bolita como una perla también naranja intenso. Son increíbles, el color, la forma, la textura.. gracias a la Diosa Naturaleza que nos regala con todas estas maravillas..
