I’ve spent the last two years travelling back and fourth between Melbourne and Wellington… Just often enough, and long enough for any plants I’ve brought home to die from lack of attention. This year however has been a bit different. I’ve been settled in one place since December, and so have finally been able to collect a few green things which have been greatly missed in my house. Still a far stretch from the lovely jungle I had to give away when we left Wellington… Maybe one day I’ll manage to accumulate another one.
Anyways, I found a couple of cute colourful Bromeliads at the local markets – I’m aiming for plants that do well in the heat. Thought they’d make some nice sketchy paintings. For a change I worked them up as Watercolours… Not my usual choice, but seemed like a good fit for flower studies.
