To experience the seasons, it has become a routine of mine to paint the first bloom around my surroundings, during its flowering season.
Symbolic of powerful Yang energy, Chrysanthemums are believed to represent happiness, longevity, joy and the attraction of good luck in the home. If you receive chrysanthemums from someone, it is a symbol of love.
Geraldton wax (Chamelaucium uncinatum) is also a beautiful flowering Australian native shrub that brings colour to gardens from late winter to spring. The flowers have a sweet, honey fragrance, ooze nectar and are highly attractive to bees. The flowers also have a beautiful meaning, such as happiness in marriage.
Daisies stands for innocence and purity. In earlier days, women wore daisy flowers to decorate their hair, which symbolized the simplicity and innocence of youth.
Also, when a daisy flower gifted by a maiden was considered a sign of affection and a respectable gesture, till today, the daisy bloom is used to express the language of love in a special way.
As for my all-time favourite - Eucalyptus stands for Healing and Protection.
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.
