The dorsal portion is tuned to short wavelengths, UV and blue, for tracking prey against the sky. The ventral portion shifts toward middle and longer wavelengths for navigating among foliage. This painting renders the bromeliad in a unified cool palette dominated by the dorsal range, with small yellow-green and pink incidents toward the lower leaves referencing the ventral shift. The vertical organization of the composition follows the eye's own gradient. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eOther Paintings in the Series\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"Bromeliad as seen by a Strawberry Dart Frog\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lizaboffi.com\/products\/bromeliad-as-seen-by-a-strawberry-dart-frog\"\u003eBromeliad as seen by a Strawberry Dart Frog\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.lizaboffi.com\/products\/bromeliad-as-seen-by-a-hummingbird\" title=\"Bromeliad as seen by a Hummingbird\"\u003eBromeliad as seen by a Hummingbird\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eMy Promise \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10% of proceeds from every purchase are donated to the World Wildlife Fund to support the protection of endangered species.
