Artichoke Flowers

I saw these beauties while on my run and returned later that day to draw them, posting a quick snapshop of my sketching set-up from my phone:)
ID this plant
Later I found out that it's a Globe Artichoke (Cynara cardunculus)! ;)

  3. Love the energy in your painting! Am also making incidental note about just how many people have that little travel kit of yours...must take a closer look at it- after all, can all you folks be wrong? :-)
