Below is a video of the inspiration and the making of one of my larger oil paintings. It was 120 x 180 cm.
Sorry, no Dtube (I can't get it working for me).

Protea madida is an amphibious plant: a plant that has both an aquatic and a terrestrial habit. They are primarily found in volcanic active regions around Tonga and tolerate high levels of phosphorus and heat.
Protea madida are usually the first large plants to populate newly formed islands.

Oil on canvas, 180 x 120 cm

      I can't refrain to squeeze them if I see them. They are so weird.
