Along with Banksias, Proteas would have to be one of my favourite varieties of native flowers...infact they were the flowers I chose for my wedding bouquet!
I am drawn to these vibrant colours and felt compelled to capture the gentle lean and 'sway' of the stalks and the lovely leaf shapes. This was painted early in 2017 and I was also interested in exploring the challenge of those colours and twists within the glass reflections!
