Artwork description:

My sister grows some amazing dahlias. This year, she grew dinner-plate dahlias; they are literally as big as a dinner plate. They are just incredible. I really love the giant purple dahlias. So, this is my first attempt at drawing, printing, painting one.

I drew the image onto linoleum, cut out the image, printed the image onto Strathmore paper with black oil-based ink, and then colored it in with watercolor.
