Original artwork description:

A few years back I went through a phase with this type of orchid, Oncidium equitants.
I grow & breed orchids. I love them, to me they are living sculpture. Naturally I end up doing paintings on this subject. So there’s a few paintings based on this orchid subject…. some have sold & some really nice ones are still for sale.
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 gives a better feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting.
Interested to have your idea painted in this style? Maybe a storyboard collage of flowers, or a corner from your garden? Contact me.
Please note that you can purchase in one order up to 3 paintings of same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee. 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.
