Post 65: Orchid in a Terracotta Pot 11x14 Acrylic Painting on Canvas

Painting Name: Orchid in a Terracotta Pot

Backgrounds will be an ongoing study for me in future paintings for still life. 

SKU: 02W21ACG
Medium:  Acrylic
Size:  11x14 Gallery Wrapped Stretched Canvas
Framed?: No
Edition Year: 2021
Check Availability and Prints on my Etsy Shop


About this Painting…

This is a Gallery Wrap stretched canvas turned vertically so the 14 inch side is up and the 11 side is horizontal. The orchids are white, pale green, tinges of peach, and pale blues and a bit of soft orange. The leaves are a deep green. The background is beige, blue, brown and white.







I have to confess, I have never grown orchids, have you? They always seemed so intimidating to my somewhat green thumb (oh, it was a paint smudge, sorry). But I did learn a few things and this link certainly breaks through the rumors and myths so if I can find the right placement for one, maybe I will try to grow one.

In the meantime, I may keep this one hanging up for awhile.

About this Painting…

They say the third time is the charm, but to me, this painting has been charming three times in a row! I have sold the first two versions of it so obviously, that meant I HAD to paint it again.

Each one comes out a little different and I really want to go buy an African Violet for my desk here in my office. A happy little plant that is particular about its watering.

About this Painting…

This is version 2 of African Violets - I had to paint it again because I sold the other one. African Violets in a Terracotta Pot 2 is slightly different than the first one of course, as each are handpainted.


The picture quality shown here was not as nice as version 1 and 3 and alas, it is on its way to its new home these were the quick pictures taken on a less than sunny day.

About this Painting…



This one really pops out at you - photorealism. I suppose some artists are rather fond of some paintings over others and I think this one is a favorite now. 

The black painted background really makes the terracotta pot stand out along with the pink African Violets and the green, yellow leaves with their deep maroon, purple undersides.

My new DL Art coffee cup as a reference for size is not included.


A dear friend with her new original painting hanging in her home. I love to see my artwork with its new owner! 

This painting has been sold and is no longer available, see notes below to commission a painting.
