Breezing Into Blooms - 4

Now, having gotten the shading part more or less down, the 'hard' part remains - to do the section of light, where the tip of the nib is barely touching the canvas to leave the tiniest of dots, and to do this the whole of the section now seen as white...  after that, then seeing it blended into the rest is a small matter of going over again and again until seen as fit...  there are more in details as well to do, but they'll wait until the basic curving is achieved...








I thought it would be of interest to show the size of the stippling, using a ruler, so you could see how fine the dotting is - and that its irregularity is due to impatience in the stippling [going too fast for fine care of uniformity in the dots]...
