Only in recent years have we started collecting these wonderful plants. I’ve wanted this colour for ages and it was an early Christmas present to ourselves. This is a present to a friend. I hope she likes it!
Acrylic on canvas, 30cm x 40cm.

Gorgeous – flowers are beautifully done.
Don’t know if it’s been given yet …….. the only bit that doesn’t gel here is the bottom right leaf …… may be the photo of course but its tone and colour draw the eye away from the majesty of the flowers. (JMHO y’know!!!)
Cheers, Maureen

It’s in shadow and is actually painted a dark green-brown.
Need a new camera and a new pair of eyes!!:cool:

You’ve got the whole plant in, the leaves and stems, the great branch of all the blossoms. It’s very cool. I used to have one once, but it died, it wasn’t this sort but I love seeing these.
