A Plant in the Studio

I don't know what kind of plant this is...except when I saw it at the greenhouse I wanted to paint it...and so I did...finally after looking  at it for a week or more I was able to do this study of it....I loved the cloth with the roses on it   oil on canvas 20x20

What a gorgeous painting,in every way.

I bet the plant is thinking so, too.

Do you suppose flowers sense that they are being admired and portrayed?

The intensity of the oranges in the pot, the movement of the leaves and the pattern on cloth against the distinct blues all swirl with an inner excitement.
