The Sansevieria Series I

I wanted to see how different mediums affected how an item was portrayed in art. I picked a sansevieria (mother-in-law's tongue) as my subject, and set about experimenting.

This first painting is in watercolour and ink - a pen and wash.

Sans I 


I've decided to have a series of three. Do come back and see the others.

    Very good! We call this plant 'women's tongue' in Holland, but I like your name better. Not all women have a sharp tongue, don't you agree?

    Judy, absolutely agree...but also, not all mother in laws have a sharp tongue either. So maybe Snake plant is best 😁
