Original artwork description:

The coral orchid grows slowly, it is watered with patience, and it requires a steady hand.
It blooms once, and it remains eternal.

It was a period when I persisted with watercolors, and after various washes, smudges, and discarded sheets, at a certain point, an orchid blossomed. This is the second one in a series of three coral orchids. For the pattern of this flower, I drew inspiration from the calcareous skeletons of corals, following a highly evocative visit to the Berlin Aquarium. I created the structure of this pattern through the juxtaposition and layering of watercolors, pencils, and markers.

It was a painstaking, patient, and meditative work.
The drawing is sold unframed. It can fit well into a standard 30x30 square frame, allowing the sheet sufficient space away from the frame, it is advisable to protect and enhance it with a museum-grade anti-reflective glass.

Materials used:

Pencils, markers, watercolours
