Ode to Carmencita
This piece was actually inspired by one of the many plants I grow in my yard�Ricinus Communis "Carmencita� (Castor Bean Plant). It is the deadliest plant in the world, and one of the most important plants to our economy! It is used in both the medical industry and in gasoline production.
Grow it with caution (symbolized by the skulls)! There is beauty in every form � the colors of the plant (iridescent greens, reds, bronzes & purples) are depicted throughout the entire painting.
