Perhaps it would be expected that only the part of a rose bush that protrudes above the ground would be drawn; instead I chose to draw the rose bush as an object, roots and all.
Perhaps I’ll colour the drawings in an effort to develop them further.

Do roses look better in a bunch or all spread out like specimens mounted for our observation? Perhaps just like other objects roses deserve a chance to be considered on an individual basis.
Like other objects flowers have personality and should be considered valuable in their own right, even without being arranged.
