A bouquet in Paphos, Cyprus — and one flower that didn't look like anything else in it. The protea has that quality. Architecturally strange, almost prehistoric, the kind of form that makes you want to draw it immediately.
Native to South Africa, it grows in poor soil, survives fire, comes back. The earthy sandy tones of this piece came directly from the Paphos landscape around it — the colour was already there.
It lives well in botanical, organic modern, and earthy contemporary interiors — anywhere that suits something with an unusual kind of presence.
Giclée print on premium museum-quality matte paper. Made to order, ships in 2–3 business days.
Available in various sizes — custom sizes on request.
Free US shipping. International shipping calculated at checkout. Delivered in a protective tube.
