Entitled Pseudobotanica, this brilliant work departs from Jai’s usual renditions while still preserving his use of vibrant colours. Similar to the above work by Jai, this work is also executed on paper but this time, highlighting only two flowers. Still unbloomed, the violet shade is seen on the petals, complemented by green hues from its stem and tendrils emanating from the stem. This seamless work is beautiful and would make a lovely home piece.
