Bloodroot
2020
11x14" acrylic on canvas
Bloodroot is a native ephemeral plant of Canada - it derives its name from the colour of its roots. Each individual plant has one leaf and one flower, and has a very specific way of dispersing seeds - they are carried away by ants!
I wanted to practice macro paintings of flowers, and I love painting dew drops. This individual plant was located in my perennial bed. |
