Jade plant in watercolour by Celeste Dion

Celeste Dion writes: Here is a small painting I did of one of my houseplants for the challenge. It is a Jade plant (Crassula) variety. It is done in watercolour."

Anthurium in coloured pencil by Mary Atkins

Mary commented "This is an Anthurium. It was a subject that I chose back in November 2019 in Jan Salmon's coloured pencil course. This plant is still alive and fortunately thrives on neglect. I am much more mindful of outdoor plants. This was done on Legion Stonehenge 140 lb hot press paper."
