I Call Her Tootsie Rose
Pastel, 16 x 20, $1,110, framed. Free shipping in the continental United States.
This bromeliad is in my backyard and shines with the sun. Hearing that plants do better when you talk to them, I gave it a name my little girl, Tara, chose for a long ago cat. I added fantasy colors to its true magenta but also included the scars of life.
This was one of a series of three bromelliads I painted. This one was accepted for competition and was hung for the Bromeliad Convention at the Ocean Center in Daytona Beach and in Peabody Auditorium in 2011.
