Pincushion Protea and Shasta Daisies

Oil on Canvas 50cmx30cm
Pincushion Protea, amongst the first of the spring flowers open on the Garden Route, the subject of my painting.
Reminded me of a painting I did of the Cottage garden in Stellenbosch, of pincushions and Shasta daisies. We had a fabulous, double headed protea pincushion that created minature Suns in the garden.
