Occasionally I come across a flower or a plant and simply need to paint it. This piece is inspired by banksia flowers I pilfered from a playground in Queenscliff (Victoria). The bush had the most stunning leaves and as all lovers of the Banksia genus know, all stages of the flowering cycle are incredible. Here the Banksia is keeping company with some native blooms from my garden and a Haworthia succulent.
This piece is created using both watercolours and watercolour pencils.
Framed in a beautiful Australian blackwood frame with a double float mount (archival) as pictured in the mock ups.
**This series would suit an upmarket office space as a set or individually, or anywhere an extra special piece is warranted.
