Description
While sorting, cleaning and re-organizing in my studio, I came across some watercolor paintings that I had done a number of years ago in the Muttart Conservatory, Edmonton, Alberta. The Muttart Conservatory is a botanical garden, so you can expect to find flowers and plants that are not native to a northern climate.
I found these Cymbidium Orchids one wintery afternoon and I loved them right away. Everything about them was beautiful, their pale pink blooms, the sculptural aspect of their growth habit, even their long trailing green leaves. A perfect opportunity for drawing and painting.
