Kankaambaram - pretty little orange flowers


Kankaambaram - These pretty little orange flowers were strewn on the floor getting ready to be woven into long strands along with some jasmine flowers.
They were looking very pretty with light making the petals transparent, and casting intereting shadows on the floor, . . . and became the inspiration for this still life painting, which I did in an impressionist style, deviating a little from my usual pure-realism.
