"Persian Rose" Series
The ranuculus is one of my favorite blooms! I love their variety: brilliant and bold or soft and subtle, they always delight!
I also love exploring the meanings assigned to flowers. Did you know that ranuculus is Latin for "little frog?" Perhaps the reason is this:
"According to legend, a young Persian prince became enamored with a beautiful nymph and sang to her night and day. The nymphs became so tired of listening to the young prince sing that they turned him into a ranunculus flower."
This small and endearing flower was in Victorian times, sent to tell a lover that they were charming and attractive.
Today, I am offering two watercolors of these beautiful blooms painted on handmade paper infused with silver metallic ink.
