"Hydrangeas and Lobelias"


Hydrangeas and Lobelias
oil, 8x10"



Most hydrangeas are white but also come in blue, pink, red and purple 
depending on  the acidity in the soil. If the soil is neutral they become
more pale in color, pink and purple. If the soil is acidic they turn blue.
They originated from Asia, North and South America.
There are 100 species of the hydrangea shrub.
Flowers truly gain my interest, there are so many of them and are
so beautiful. I guess that's why I paint them.
