Orchid Study - Original Oil Painting by George De Chiara

Orchid Study 5x7 inches Oil on Canvas Panel by George De Chiara If you would like to purchase this painting visit my auction here.  I'm working on a commission for one of my collectors and she wants orchids in it. Having never painted an orchid before, I thought it might be a good idea to do this little study first. I'm working from silk flowers with this one, which have a unique set of issues, but since I have my doubts on keeping the real thing alive long enough to paint, it's the best I can do. That being said, I have tried out my green thumb in the vegetable garden, but sometimes things just don't work out for me when it comes to flowers.
