A Thai garland

This is a Thai garland (a number of small tropical flowers such as jasmine, roses, aster, etc. are strung together). Can you believe that someone put those tiny flowers together for a price of 1 USD per garland. I had to buy it to paint; luckily, I had preserved it in our fridge. for 5 days until today that I have time to work on it. So our fridge smells very heavenly and jasminely. :p Tone laughed again at things I do for art. This is a 9x12 inch Casein paint on a canvas panel
