Irises. In many countries, this flower is very revered. For example, Florence, thanks to the Romans, got its name from the Latin word "florum" (blooming), as iris flowers grew in abundance around the city. Until now, Florence uses the image of an iris on its coat of arms.
In Egypt, it is a symbol of eloquence. And in Japan, iris leaves are compared with swords, so the words "iris" and "warrior spirit" are denoted by one hieroglyph.
In Christianity, iris and lily are a symbol of the Virgin Mary, it denotes her purity, sadness and suffering.
It seems to me that this is a very unusual flower that carries a strong positive energy. I was inspired by its beauty, grace, its variety of shades and colors. Irises have a certain mystery, sophistication, and have some kind of mystical beauty. Do you agree?
To further emphasize the magic of this flower and give additional volume and depth, I made this picture with a palette knife, which gave the picture even more charm and naturalness. This volumetric drawing technique creates additional chiaroscuro on the canvas and makes the work more realistic and interesting.
The picture is perfect for decorating the living room, bedroom, kitchen and even a child's room.
This work is made in calm, pastel colors that will help you relax after a working day, or just feel peace and serenity.
The picture "Irises" is framed and ready to please your eye at home.
