Here’s a look at the Goldenrod flowers and some yellow and green Polychromos Color Pencils I picked out.

Using the Earth Green Yellowish 168, I lightly sketched the stems.

I started adding small touches of Olive Green Yellowish 173 and Chromium Green Opaque 174 to create some details and depth in the stems.
