Pink Roses In Watercolor

Roses are my favorite. Pink Roses are symbolic representations of love, gratitude and appreciation. They exude such graceful elegance which one can hardly ignore. The pink blooms are truly majestic. I consider them to be the best gifting option for all occasions.

NATURE - The Art of God

                             

                                               "Nature is the art of God"

                                                                                                                             - Dante Alighieri

"Blue Blooming Beauties"

This nature quote will inspire many of us. Its not that I'm telling you something new . Its just that you pay attention. We are all familiar about the under mentioned facts but it is just that in our extremely busy lives, we don't pay attention to these little tidbits. Halt! stop for a while... Takeout time to relax and enjoy life more. At least, make an effort. Simply try  once and see the change/transformation in you. All this will help you in becoming a better individual. Life will be much happier when you start enjoying the little things in life. Delight in the beauty that surrounds you.

• Living for others is the rule of nature. 
• When you look deep into the nature, then you will realize that at times, nature plays the role of a teacher for us. 
• Feel blessed and enjoy the 'gifts' of nature. Appreciate the beauty around you. 
• Let it soothe and heal you. It is certainly cheaper than a therapy. Let nature be your medicine. 
• Make it a habit to spend time in nature.
• Learn to be patient from nature. Nature doesn't hurry.  

Pause and Remember -

"Life is a precious gift.

Use your days wisely."

Here, are a few of my recent watercolor floral paintings which reflects the divine serenity of nature. Life is full of colors... Enjoy each color with joy! Let yourself be surprised by nature. I believe flowers have a feel good factor whenever you look at them.

"Red Symphony"

"Cherry Blossoms"

Take time to stop and smell the flowers.

After all flowers express feelings better than words.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone! :)

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

Pretty Pink Daisies

This week my choice of flower is "Daisy". Pretty Pink Daisies - fabulous flowers... I love painting on this subject. Why? 
The reason being its simplicity and innocence that it portrays. Also they are exquisite, visually appealing and always attract my undivided attention. They are my favorite. They are just so pretty!

These delicate flowers seem to be overflowing with happiness. Often, they are regarded as a symbol of purity especially the white ones. The cut Gerbera daisies make stunning bouquets and indoor flower arrangements. I have a deep personal liking for these stylish and sophisticated flowers. I bet their mere presence will brighten any occasion with their brilliant hues.

A simple fact about them which I also didn't know till now that they are named after a German botanist Traugott Gerber.

In this floral watercolor painting, I have painted pink daisies. The stem is generally upright and support the flower. Its center has a brown core. These are perfect summer floral plants, found in a wide variety of shades of white, pink, yellow, orange, red and purple. The daisy flowers are phototrophic which means that they always turn towards the source of light like sunflowers and belong to the sunflower family.

Here's the artwork in progress:

Oh! And did I tell you that how much I enjoyed painting these florets, with my favorite music put on and how the brush strokes were just going with the flow. In the end, I was quite pleased with the finished painting...

Have a nice weekend!

My first painting of the New Year 2015

My first painting of the New Year 2015: Daffodil flowers
This is because daffodils symbolize new beginnings / rebirth. These flowers with unmatched beauty often bloom in clusters. They are often used in bouquets or flower arrangements. A bunch of daffodil flowers as a gift ensures wealth and happiness. Gifting a single flower is considered to be a bad omen. Thus, flowers should always be given in a bunch.

Yellow Daffodils

Their scientific name is Narcissus. Their common names include ~ jonquil and lent lily. They are popularly called 'lent lily' due to their long association with Lent. Let me tell you that, Lent is forty day long period of preparation for Easter sunday. During this period before Easter, many Christians do not eat certain type of food as a mark of respect to remember the suffering of Jesus Christ. 

These beautiful flowers are infact, a sign of end of winter season. They are the March birth month flower. They appear at the onset of spring. They have six petals and there is one flower per stem. Their basic color is yellow but generally white daffodils are also common.  

Many poets including William Wordsworth have composed poems on them. These ornamental flowers are a favourite with gardeners and florists for the simple reason that they have long life and have pretty, attractive blooms. The daffodil is the national flower of Wales and the symbol of many Cancer Charity Organisations. They also have medicinal value. 

Hope your New Year is off to a wonderful start.

Have a nice day! :)
