| “Real flowers bloom in the wilderness.” - from the movie: “House of Flying Daggers.” |
| I recall a quote from artist Georgia
O'Keeffe that goes something like this: "Nobody sees a flower—really—it
is so small it takes time—we haven't time—and to see takes
time..." Perhaps most don't take the time to look at a plant
up close, but some of us do! I'm an admirer of her landscapes and
close-up paintings of flowers. From a distance flowers may just appear
to be a blur of color, but up close the details can be incredible
with elaborate structures and fantastic, subtle shades. Of course
this is all just a ploy to attract insects and perpetuate the genus,
but quite enjoyable to humans as well! Click on a small image below for the full size image and description... |
