For My Mum

When I went to the cafe this morning for coffee, I had no plans to sketch — although I usually have my small sketchbook with me just in case.

When I saw this lovely coleus plant on my table, I couldn’t resist. You see, my mother was a keen gardener and loved potted plants. She had a whole collection of different coleus plants in all their purple and green and pink glory, and if it wasn’t her all time favourite, it was at least one of them. This plant made me think of her.

So this one’s for you, Mum.
