excellent work. Very professional & scientific.

Thank you!

Pretty random subject for a 3d painting but always neat nicely painted.

@Weapon X: I have a degree in horticulture science. This plant is from my collection.

cool! and I think you are only the second person I know of with a degree in horticulture. Excellent details, I like fig 1

The diversity of plants(and life, in general) is a wonderful thing! c:

How pretty plant!

wow, you seem like an intriguing person with an exquisite style of painting.

Thank you everyone for your comments!

What a refreshing work of 3d art and knowledge! Very cool!

Perfect!

Aaron, you also have a degree in being an awesome artist!

Its so.... detailed!

This painting reminds me of a book my grandma used to have. Very well drawn and fabulous details ^-^

That's a good fascination you've got there. All sorts of medical break throughs come from botanists.

I'm a bit of an entomology maniac myself though XD I love to study insects. Mostly spiders.

Nice job :)

@The Adjudicator: If you'll allow me to geek out for a moment. I was fascinated by this genus of plants. Euphorbias are incredibly diverse in forms (a genus is grouped based on flowering characteristics, not growth form). There are thousands of species, ranging from subterranean caudiciforms, which only produce a few leaves just above the soil each year, to thirty or more foot tall trees. I personally had over a hundred species and varieties at one time. The most well known species of the genus is Euphorbia pulcherrima, or Poinsettia. Many of the African species resemble cacti (which are native only to the Americas), and fill the same ecological niche. Euphorbias have a milky white sap that, although varying in potentcy, is almost always toxic. Many are capable of producing skin legions and causing temporary blindness, and some would be fatal if consumed.

Everything is always so CLEAN in your pics. I particularly notice this in the text of this image. Every letter and number is basically typographic. You can always tell when somebody puts as much effort in their text as they do with their actual drawing. Very nice job!

Are you f*uking kinding me?

This is amazing! Thank you for "geeking out", as you said. For taking the time to explain your fascination about Euphorbiaceae and sharing a bit of your knowledge. I love nature too! It's my main inspiration not only in art, but also in my daily life.

oh my god oh my god oh my god i just read about these yesterday i want one so much
