Flower Power in Art!

Flowers. And, More Flowers!  I’m in a “Flower” kind of mood.  ANY  kind of flower will do.

Photos, mixed media, from the imagination, acrylics, inks, drawings, watercolor, old images or new.

Those things – are irrelevant to me at the moment.

Right now,  its All About the Flower!

My focus and purpose isn’t so much providing  “New”  and novel experiences that are exciting just at the moment but….. so easy to forget 10 minutes later.

 

 

Art Garden of  Flower Power

Its more of  an attempt, to try to convey the sheer beauty of form that various flowers can provide us in so many differing media.

More of a collection of florals to soothe and inspire.

 

More of a “Floral Oasis”  to come back to;  return,  to chill and zen.

 

It is a Garden.

 

 

 

And hopefully, the effort can be successful in some measure, for some!

“Ethereal”      soft, delicately out of focus. enchanting.   Canon 600d 100mm f2.8

Such an imaginative shot, with the blurred edges…. looking nearly like a dreamscape. And the glorious pinks with the greys! divine!

Wonderful things, do come in small packages.

 

This close up of sunlit poppy petal still enchants me.

Even though the photo was taken nearly 10 years ago…. yes, Its OLD.

And loved. And still has things to teach…

A new,  image.  Intriguing in the depth of field. Soft edges front and back with the center area targeted and in focus.   I liked it.  Refreshing.

 

 

 

Being Inspired

 

Whether its old things or new things,  it is possible to be inspired and learn from them all.

Today’s post  was a great way to review images and see them with fresh eyes.

As well as putting them into a “Collection.”

 

Making a Collection and assembling the items, really does organise your thoughts and cements art basics while you are in the process too.  Its a great idea!

I hope you had a wonderful time traveling through my Flower Power Garden today.

 

It never fails to inspire and amaze me, how the various forms of flowers  create such gorgeous art.
