Description
I've painted this subject before, and I am always drawn to this plant in a close up view instead of the entire bloom. I like the structural aspect of this flower, and for me, that is what it's all about; the composition. This is from a photo I took in the little town of San Sebastian, Mexico, which is up in the mountains above Puerto Vallarta. I found this blooming in the tiny cathedral courtyard of the town.

Was drawn by the clean lines, cool greens contrasted by the oh-so-warm yellow/orange tones!! Love it. Really well done!

My favorite so far of all your work -- so beautiful!

I SO appreciate the comment. I have been fighting an uphill battle on this one. Several of my friends find it 'odd' and somehow lacking. It is actually one of my favorites too. I was fascinated with the geometry (for lack of a better word) of the leaves and the bloom itself. For me, in this one, it is all about the composition and the color, not necessarily the subject matter itself. I think my followers were expecting a full fledged representation of the Bird of Paradise flower the way they have always seen it. So it means a lot to me that you appreciate it.
