Just for your reference. Hope this helps!

Here’s my peony progress. I’ve burnished and layered and burnished some more and got lost in the lines for the greenery, but I am not a quitter. No Lilac or Amethyst have been added

That’s looking great Sonia! I can’t wait to see the finished drawing!
You’re all probably tired of my peony progress, but it feels like the last stretch is around two corners. Some more burnishing, a couple of layers, add more details, 
I never get tired of progress pictures. It’s beautiful!! 
Sonia - this is looking great !!!
