A commissioned painting for a beautiful living room. I was working at this botanical subject, inspired by the Dracena Draco tree. I liked the movement of its branches and I directly put these lines in this large painting. Its name means dragon in ancient greek, its umbrella shape is a characteristic of this vulnerable sub-tropical species, at risk of extinction currently. I studied it during en plain air session of drawing.

Dracena Draco

  
A study of aereal ficus roots. Inspired by The Ficus macrophylla, also known as Ficus magnolioide or Fig of the Bay of Moreton, a large evergreen tree of the Moraceae family, widespread in my living area.
