Under Mother's Wings, Parrot Tulip with three buds

The name for this small bunch of white Parrot tulips came automatically: the large mother flower is gently watching over the fresh and juicy buds, that have all their fringes already in place!

The Franklin 54 Gallery in New York described the image in 2004 as follows:

"Under Mother's Wings" is strong and appears as a mother with her children in a dance to life, still connected as one. The artist's sensitivity to her subject combined with her apt skill at drawing leaves us with a representation we should all be grateful for."
