This painting was inspired by the beautiful tropical flowers, which I saw in many botanical gardens on Oahu. Flowers are one of the most beautiful creations of nature - small masterpieces. The beauty of flowers is a magical, special beauty.
I took a lot of pictures of the flowers and trees, but no photo can replace an original painting with the strokes that store the energy of creativity.
The birds in the painting are Red-Created Cardinals.
These colorful birds are diurnal and often are seen in small groups or pairs, and outside the breeding season will form larger flocks. Red-Crested Cardinals are monogamous and pairs mate for life. During the breeding season, birds remain exclusively in pairs. Both male and female use their crests for showing emotion. In flight, their path is undulating. This species has a melodious song which features a range of whistles and musical chirps of varied pitch. A single song only lasts 1-3 seconds, but a song may be repeated over and over.
Birds symbolize longevity and happiness. Paintings with a pair of birds bring luck in marriage and harmony in family relationships.
The bright colors of this painting evoke the most sensual chain of associations, fills the home with comfort, optimism, sensuality, a sense of coziness with notes of solemnity, nobility and wealth!
