Interested in a little commission work? I would love a silver Ghost Orchid.

I was going to ask you about that? Anyway...they were beautiful and I have actually sculpt a few of them.

I can do that, it would be cool too. That's an awesome orchid! I have to say I have never seen one like that.

PS..I just did a search on a "Silver Ghost Orchid" this is such a ghostly graceful orchid...you know what I mean?

They are native to only S. Florida and Cuba. I had the pleasure of taking the picture. The flower its self is only about 1-1/2 inchs wide. The Pictures are to help with actual size. The real name is Polyrrhiza lindenii (Ghost orchid) Sliver is the type of metal I was interested in.

Well I'm in S. Florida too so call me next time you have the honor of photographing one of these beauties. As you well know, there are so many orchid nurseries here. I can see across the New River at a orchid nursery on some of the most expensive property in S. Florida.

I can make that Ghost Orchid.... I'll send you a pm.

Thanks Dave!

You all have kept me busy...THANK YOU! I love all of your ideas your sending me...it's wonderful having all of you helping me decide which orchids to sculpt. I have found that you have a deep attachment to some of these orchids which I would have never known about.

I am in the process of developing a few of these which includes Dave's Ghost Orchid which is turning out to be a really cool pendant. It's still in the wax stages but I just put that one on my blog.

I have listed a Cattleya Orchid Ring in the OB Marketplace but of course my blog will take you to my Shop.

Please keep the ideas coming!
