Something has her attention


something has her attention
maybe a wild orchid?:


 So lovely to have flowers blooming!
This is a calypso orchid
commonly called a fairy slipper

quite similar to a lady slipper but about half the size 
and different coloring.

  4. What an interesting painting. Something has caught her attention. I rather like the starry flowers.
    The calypso orchid is almost unbelievable and it's a very suitable name. I wonder who named it and when.

  5. She is sitting under a fine umbrella! She is Tammie - - :) The fairy-shoe is made for your figures and dreams. She is sitting so, that I really can feel her position. Very empathic!

  8. She looks lovely sitting under her mushroom. What an unusual looking orchid and such pretty colour. That would have my attention too.

  10. I think she saw a deer or a monkey. I like the star-shaped flowers.

    That calypso orchid is very odd but kind of grand.

    Have a lovely day.

  11. Your art needs to go into a book. All the magical characters with a story. How nice to have this growing in your garden.

    1. Thank you so much for your comments/messages.
      I would love to come up with a storybook. That was my original idea when I began drawing. Turns our my art truly and naturally leans that way. Now to do it! I do have a poem about fairies that I hope to illustrate this year. That might get me going.

      Lovely evening and beyond to you!
