Happy Rose Day

HAPPY ROSE DAY!

Roses are romantic, adding different shades to one's love life! heart emoticon

As the Valentine's Day is coming, one thing I have observed is that the markets, card stores and gift shops etc. all are being flooded with hearts and red roses. The prices of red roses shoots up like anything during the Valentine's week and specially on Rose Day which is celebrated on February 7 every year. The demand for roses increases tremendously. Their abundance is intoxicating at times. But, you can't deny the fact that hearts and red roses are the symbols of 'Love'. And Valentine's Day is one such time to express your love and give gifts. As you all will agree that Love is the most wonderful feeling.

Rose Day is the first day of Valentine's week, also referred as 'love week'. The countdown has begun... and lovers are really looking forward to it. They start planning in advance - how they'll make their near and dear ones feel extra special. Are you thinking of ways to impress your beloved? Then, there is a whole range of products to choose from such as unique gifts/ cards/ cakes/ flowers/ chocolates/ teddies/ mugs/ cushions etc.

Here are some roses to add to the love and joy on this Rose Day :)

Celebrate the season of love...  <3 <3 <3

"Flowers are heaven's masterpiece" - Dorothy Parker

The above nature quote is so true. Being inspired by the beauty of flowers, here are a few of my small floral paintings ~

Majestic pink gladeolus flowers

They are also known as "sword lily" and are mostly used in floral arrangements as they are available in wide range of colors.

Yellow rose buds

Rose is the June birth flower. They are considered as the symbol of love. The rose buds are painted in loose style.

Poinsettia Flower

Welcome the holiday season with Poinsettia. It is considered as the traditional Christmas plant and the December month birth flower.

Yellow Hibiscus

The exotic yellow hibiscus flower is designated as Hawaii's state flower. The flowers are quite large and bright.

Undoubtedly, one can never get tired of admiring the beauty of flowers. The blooms during Spring and Winter are simply out of this world. So pretty that it can't be described in words. The flowers seem to spread joy around. We, human beings should learn to enjoy the nature in its purest form without disturbing the ecological balance.
