Violas in a Fig Can
Oil on panel 20 x 20 cms
I'd grown the violas in a window box and rescued these last few flowerheads when I was replacing the flowers at the end of the season. The fig can was far too pretty to just discard into the recycling, so I'd saved it to use as a vase. I loved the way they looked together and decided to immortalise it in paint :-)
