Artwork description: 
This drawing took three years to complete. In the best tradition of botanical art I often use multiple specimens to portray one flower. In this case the second batch of bulbs were the wrong colour (pink and no stripes). I completed the rest of the drawing while I waited for the third spring to give me the exquisite striped flowers at last. The little wooden Pinocchio decoration used to hang on my childhood Christmas trees.
