Art explosion contest entry - SURREALISM

[milenamilak]

Hey Steemit!
I've been so busy have almost no time for Steemit. Sadly. But since I got a bit ill yesterday and thanks to that had some time off I decided to take part in a contest hosted by @juliakponsford

https://steemit.com/art/@juliakponsford/art-explosion-week-33-theme-surreal-25-steem-in-prizes

I've always loved surrealism so an idea popped in my head almost instantly. I'm a bit obsessed with garden /forest theme, I enjoy painting trees, leavs and flowers patterns, playing around with colors and textures. I think I just miss having a deeper contact with nature.

Quick info about the drawing:
It's A5 size / mixed media.
I used color pencils, pencils and promarkers.

Title: I'm watering my blooming garden

Curious what you think about it, please let me know! :)

Cheers
Mila

The first layer was just pencil (2H and 6B) then color pencils and finally promarkers.
