Description
The owl (moth) and the pussy cat (bird) went to sea in a beautiful pea green boat (orchid)…
My apologies to Edward Lear for making his nonsense poem even more nonsensical… Ever since I discovered that cymbidium orchids are also referred to as boat orchids I have been desperate to paint this picture… I love that nothing is as it is meant to be, and as a fan of Twin Peaks I love that I can now say that the “owls are not what they seem.” Both the green catbird and the zig zag white banded owl moth are native to Australia, and the cymbidium iridioides, well it is just a beautiful pea green (and red striped) boat orchid.
Available in three different sizes and limited to only 50 editions of each size, these fine art reproductions are printed on 100% cotton museum grade rag paper. Each print is individually numbered, embossed and signed.
