oil on primed card 6x4"  available from Newbloodart

There's not much growing on my allotment at the moment but this cardoon seed head caught my eye.  Cardoons are like giant thistles - this seed head is about 4 inches across. The flowers are an incredible violet blue and the stalks are also incredibly tasty!
I haven't painted anything with this kind of fluffy texture before and I really enjoyed giving it a go. I think Ill try including it in a larger still life soon.
