English Rose

One of my favorite subjects for my sketchbook (besides flowers!) is the odd bits and pieces of fine china that make it to the local thrift stores. This sketch was from a saucer with no cup. I fell in love with the unexpected color scheme, and the rose. The strip of text is from an 1857 legal document, the other paper fragments are hand-painted. The corrugated brown strips are from the inside of a lightbulb carton (lol) that I painted brown.
