Original artwork description:

I grow & breed orchids. I love them, to me they are living sculpture. Naturally I end up doing paintings on this subject. I tried here recreate the mood and look of the miniature orchid nestled on small branches in the wild. My paper is a traditional handmade mulberry paper made in Thailand. The paper is a thick parchment type paper, strong yet pliable. I have the paper made to this size to get the deckled edges which adds to the textural effect.
The close up picture is to get a better feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting.
Packaging for my small paintings like this one is sealed in plastic sleeve, sealed in a padded hard plastic file case, and in an envelope. Please note that you can purchase in one order up to 3 paintings of this same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee.

Materials used:

acrylic colour on handmade Thai mulberry paper (kada sa), deckled edge
