Default Picks of flower, what orchid is this?

A friend bought this one in the store, and it had a label with "Orchid-mix" on....
Anyone who recognises this flower, and can tell us more?

Orchid mix would indicate that it is a Oncidium Intergeneric hybrid -
Could you post a photo of the entire plant and a close up of the pseudobulbs (bulging structure at the base of the leaves) ? Please
Perhaps someone of more expertise on Oncidiums will comment

Here is basic culture info on oncidiums and their intergeneric hybrids - Winsome Orchids - Providing high-quality orchids to Fine Florists & Garden Centers
Here is a listing into what goes into the hybrid naming - Oncidium Alliance Orchid Name Glossary
