Thank you, Johanna.. alas, the background is now red/Orange. But it seems happy all dressed up. : ))

I hope you saved your bloomed Artichoke because they dry up beautifully. I appreciate your art and your lovely comments on mine. : ))

Maria, this is simply gorgeous! The combination of majestically rendered watercolor painting with the pen and ink make for a most pleasing and stunning image. I let an artichoke in my garden to flower, and they are truly magnificent to behold. Your painting truly captures the special beauty of this most unusual blossom. Outstanding, as are all of your amazing works of art. F/L
