Passion Flower Bits O1003

This is one of five paintings exhibited at the Society of Botanical Artists 25th Anniversary Exhibition, Great Westminster Hall, London, April 2010. It won a Certificate of Botanical Merit, and was also featured in the March issue of Artists & Illustrators Magazine. This picture is painted on Aquarelle Arches hot pressed 100% cotton rag. The reason for the name of this painting is two-fold: I started painting it two years ago, and it is composed of bits of the plant because they come at different times of the year. The reason for the two-year span is because my original resource plant was dug up and thrown away by the next year, so I had to find another! I think you will agree, all parts of this propulsive climber have their own special beauty. There are many varieties of this plant, and I think this one is the most common in British gardens.
