Paradise

Paradise
4"x6" (unfr) watercolor on paper
$75

Today's daily painting is one I've been meaning to do for a long time. The Bird of Paradise tropical flower is one I've always loved, but never lived in a climate that these beauties easily grew. When we moved to Corpus Christi, one of the first things I noticed was three huge Bird of Paradise plants growing in the yard of the home we were purchasing. What interesting flowers these are, with their deep reds and purples. Actually, I find the leaves almost as appealing.
