Backyard Bromeliad

This is a small study of one of my bromeliads that decorates the area under our big live oak where nothing else will grow. I love how bromeliads 'tropicate' the yard with their exotic beauty. They are stunning in both shape and color, and most are SO easy to grow. They thrive on benign neglect here in Florida. 

I painted the long leaves of the plant around the edges of the canvas, which one can't appreciate from this single dimensional view in the photo.  No frame needed unless desired.
