STORY BEHIND THE ART OF FLORENCE GENDRE

Kiwi

Actinidia chinensis

The kiwi creeper is the first drawing I completed alone, outside of the botanical watercolor course which I have taken for almost a year. The creeper jutted out from my neighbors’ garden and scratched my head when I passed by! When I looked at it closer, I found it very beautiful and a really elegant composition. I enjoyed painting these white flowers that stand out against the soft green leaves and all the details of the velvety little buttons!
