The inspiration for this painting came one morning whilst drinking my coffee and observing the collection of Sarracenias – Trumpet Pitcher Plants sitting on my south facing windowsill. I was in the early stages of painting a series of these intriguing, stately carnivorous plants for a future exhibition with the RHS.
One beautiful large pitcher on the plant named Sarracenia ‘Charmaine’ reminded me of a Tudor Queen with her elaborate headdress. The smaller plant to her right was Sarracenia ‘Ladies in waiting’. Need I say more! So the idea of the Sarracenia Procession, complete with flower ‘parasols’, as a painting was born.
