Rose study

Pencil on paper 28cm x 28cm....This is part of a series that I will be working on, hopefully culminating in an oil painting. I want to study the rose and water droplets, trying to capture the intricate little details and play of light. By drawing 2 or 3 like this I hope to better understand the subject matter before attempting it in oils.

I'm struggling to get a decent photo of this due to the graphite shine, will try to get a better photo soon
