Affirmation: Love goes on for an endless time.

Forevermore: for an endless time.
To experience the seasons, it has become a routine of mine to paint the first bloom around my surrounding, during its flowering season.
This is my depiction of the gorgeous bouquet that was gifted to me on my birthday.

Protea flowers - native to Australia and South Africa, symbolized courage and Love. I am especially in love with the story behind the name: In Greek legend, proteas were named after Proteus, the son of Poseidon. A sea god who had the power to know all things past, present, and future.
BANKSIA prionotes, a species of shrub or tree of the genus Banksia in the family Proteaceae, also known as Acorn Banksia or Orange Banksia. In the Language of Flowers, Banksia symbolizes rebirth, regeneration and new beginnings.

The flower of Flamingo Celosia features attractive long stems of pink feathery spikes. These spectacular everlasting blooms love the full sun and symbolize affection, resilience, and strength. Therefore, Celosia makes a perfect gift for your special someone, best friend or spouse.
As for my all-time favourite - Eucalyptus leaves stand for Healing and Protection.

All the native blossoms bloom gloriously. A precious memory that I will cherish forever. Therefore, I have the title - Forevermore, for this particular artwork.

Flowers always bloom in their own time without competing with other flowers. May we all bloom in our time in the best season. Hope you enjoy this artwork of mine.
