This card shows a drawing of an ornate tulip decorated with bubbles and baubles with with curly-tipped leaves . The tulip is growing in an equally ornate (and yes, a little small!) pink ribbed urn. The Ornamental Tulip is one of 4 cards in the ‘Urn’ series that includes Thorn Flower, Curly Tulip and Checkered Flower. If you like tulips, you might also like Curly Tulip: http://etsy.me/2D0BqX9.
My drawing style is derived from a combination of being a plant biologist for my day job and having an ancestor who was a fraktur artist in Pennsylvania in the 1800s. Fraktur is a type of Pennsylvania German folk art that decorates celebratory documents such as birth certificates and house blessings. Over time, my style has become more my own, but retaining the inked outline and watercolors of the original fraktur artists. I love drawing imaginary flowers or real flowers with crazy colors!
