Flowers are simply beautiful, and capturing this beauty in paint has been the objective of artists throughout history.

As the poet wrote:

A painted bloom, a vibrant hue, captured grace, forever new.  Brushstrokes dance, a petal's grace, in silent beauty, time and space.  Each color sings, a silent rhyme, of spring's sweet kiss, defying time. The artist's hand, a loving guide, where painted flowers gently ride.
