Graphic Orchids, Monochrome Oil Painting on Canvas

Graphic Orchids monochrome oil painting on canvas

Orchids are among my favorite flowers. They are simultaneously so elegant, durable, and frail. In this oil painting, I attempted to juxtapose the delicacy of their form with their toughness… in other words, a rough and graphic artwork that is still “pretty”.
