Torch Ginger

I have always been fascinated with torch ginger blossoms and their intricacy. Those who are familiar with my work know that I enjoy painting the smaller details of a flower.  I started this single flower a few years ago before I started painting plumerias. The torch ginger will be somewhat detailed while the background will be flowing, dreamier, and looser than my usual style. This photo is pretty accurate as far as color goes.
