Early Daffodils

These delightfully sunny daffodils have been popping up all over the neighborhood:
The spring flowers seem to have arrived a month earlier then usual, at least that’s according to the dates on the photos from years past. Here are some of my previous Daffodil posts:

I absolutely love this tiny blue beauty!
The stripes, the color palette, the breath taking drama! Stunning!

Mini Rhododendron

Here are some shots of the mini Rhododendrons found next to KUA:
I couldn’t resist shooting a few pictures on the walk home from Caden’s after school program. I greatly admire the Rhododendron’s profusion of pretty pink flowers but I must admit I am not a fan of the leathery looking bush the rest of the year. Meaning I doubt you’ll see any of these plants nestled in our landscape when the final projects come to fruition at the Exalted Beauty Estate. However I truly enjoy seeing them in our neighborhood as they are a happy harbinger of Spring’s forthcoming floriferous parade of beauty! Go Spring!

Inspiration: Brewer

Do you remember this photo I shot in February?
I’ve been thinking a lot about where one goes with their sources of botanical inspiration. Many find a moving subject in nature and attempt to recreate an exact likeness and others go far beyond to create something profound like this biomorphic piece by Gary Brewer:

The piece above is from 2002 and as amazing as it is, the work keeps getting better. Stop by Gary Brewer Art to see jaw dropping orchids as well as many other incredible works of fantastical botanical art. You will be inspired!

Cold Encounters

Take a closer look at these winter hearty natural textures:
Winter compositions offer an elegant subtlety of light, shade and color that often goes unnoticed in the more brilliant, sometimes garish palettes of spring and summer.
