Sunday Sketches - Green Orchid


I was inspired to sketch a pale green orchid plant for today's Sunday Sketches. It's done in watercolour pencil outlined with a black fine point marker (3" x 5") on a random piece of paper.

That's a pretty orchid and I don't think I've ever seen a green one that I know of. I always think of pink/purple or white.

pretty :) I haven't been able to keep any orchids alive, too fussy of a plant I think for me lol
