DooDad Flowers

I started playing by drawing stem-like lines in gray on regular copy paper.  Then I drew the leaves  followed by the flowers (some odd).  Once everything was colored in, I cut out the drawn and colored part and glued it to black paper.  Changing the background to black was a great way of immediately creating contrast.    

Because this was a play effort, there was no planning of what it might be beforehand (aside from maybe flowers) or become - during the making process.  

What I really like is the red and pink jagged-edge flower with the center black dots over white.  It's gnarly and fun at the same time.  Many more together -- might make a strange and winsome 'garden'!
