Orchid (1990)
I have always loved flowers, especially the exotic orchid. Other flowers that play a predominant role in my work are lilies and nasturtiums. When making my own paper, I often add dried flower petals at various stages of the process. This paper contains dried carnation petals. I find that they enhance the 'exotic' qualities of the image.
