Gosh, your soft touches of watercolor and masterful bold brushed acrylics are keeping me captivated and returning, so many wonderful works. I love this and feel the gentile ridges in the flora of the Bromelaid have a prehistoric plant ambiance about them. Love it F/L

Watercolour and colour pencil has to be may favorite technique for realistic art. Great job with this one. Love the details and colour. What a strange but beautiful plant.

Michael, yes I love all paints. Hard to say which is my favorite. I have even painted with natural berries and plant leaf juices.
