Globe Artichoke (Cynara cardunculus var, scolymus) is a fascinating species and here I have included the subtle colour changes on the flower buds in watercolour.

Do you know that we eat the flower buds of the artichoke before they bloom? If you have ever let them fully grow, their fluffy purple flowers are really a sight to behold!

Would you like to see this painting on the walls of your home or business? I can imagine this painting as an ideal addition for a restaurant, café, grocery store, or delicatessen. Perhaps the green would look in its element in your conservatory. Either way, artichokes are full of Vitamin C and they are good for you!
