Christmas in Bedugul, Bali
View from Jeff and Yanti's house where we had an traditional English dinner—turkey and the works. Hard to believe but there was no rice. This is a view from the outdoor dining area across the lake.
Got up early Saturday morning to sketch the view before we took a hike. Everyone else was asleep.Jeff and Yanti have beautiful gardens and Jeff is an "orchiholic". This is the rare Black Orchid of Kalimantan that just bloomed. Done in a cheap journal that didn't scan at all well.

Spectacular orchids...You cannot even begin to imagine the joy these Bali drawings bringto me! What a treat... I love seeing all of your adventures...:)
Beautiful tropical colors! Love the sketches.
I love all the sketches as I always do---on the Black Orchid--I tried to look this up to see a photo of the flower and it is not easily found--is the spelling Cedegyne Panduata right? Your sketch is marvelous--so much there and lovely comp...winna
Hi Winna. The orchid guy misspelled it, so my journal entry is incorrect. The correct spelling is coelogyne pandurata. Very rare and quite beautiful.
