The artichoke

In 2019 I drew a series of close-ups views of flowers as a way to go beyond their often decorative presence and to look at them rather as alive beings. This one, the artichoke, is a real purple wonder sprouting in vegetable gardens. I felt like drawing it also because of the french expression "to have an artichoke's heart", meaning that someone falls in love quickly and easily, giving away pieces of one's heart as if they were artichoke leaves. Isn't it poetic Illustration printed on a beautiful 270gr textured art paper. Prints are made on-demand, signed and numbered.

I wanted to represent it because of the expression "having an artichoke heart", which I always found very poetic... Digital printing on art paper 270gr.
