To experience the seasons, it has become a routine of mine to paint the first bloom around my surrounding, during its flowering season.
This is my fifth depiction of one of my favourite flowers – Protea, the former four had found their forever home, and now you are looking at my latest interpretation of these gorgeous blossoms.

Protea flowers - native to Australia and South Africa, symbolized Strength, Courage, and Love. I am especially in love with the story behind the name: In Greek legend, proteas were named after Proteus, the son of Poseidon. A sea god who had the power to know all things past, present, and future.
Protea Frosted Fire (Protea neriifolia) produce stunning pink flowers with white feathery tips in winter. The white Protea Niobe (Protea magnifica x laurifolia) has light yellow flowers with trims of soft black, purplish foliage that outline the tips of the petals. Protea also associates to change and transformation, and diversity.

“What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity.” Joseph Addison English essayist, poet.

The flower always blooms in its own time without competing with other flowers.
May we all bloom in our time in the best season.
Hope you enjoy this artwork of mine.

Concept

HSIN LIN, Award-winning Artist based in Melbourne, Australia.
In Hsin Lin’s ongoing, signature contemporary floral series that feature native and common flowers we know, flowers represent life and each different type of flower has a unique symbolic meaning.
Lin is inspired by her close observation of the natural world. Through a process of careful looking Lin is able to capture an incredible amount of intricate detail. To create the larger-scale work, Lin normally spends 6-12 months developing the intricate composition. The fine details such as the tiny petals have been developed through ten or more layers of paint. Lin describes that ‘although still-life is considered a traditional genre, each object in the paintings stands for a different meaning and has its own story. Flowers represent us as humans, vases represent the body carrying our soul, protecting us like a shield. The weaving basket stands for connections—the bonds between families, friends and all the people around us. Even if you are apart, everyone is still being linked together as a whole and we are stronger together.’ Lin’s paintings, a series of flowers in full bloom, remind us that we are alive and that life is vibrant, blossoming and full of potential.
