First Bloom

First Bloom 12 x 16 Uart 400 Grit 8 Ply Board

It’s early Summer, about late June when Winter’s chill finally melts from the bones into just a memory as the fragrance of the first rose bursts upon the senses. I find that such a scent, caught on the late day breeze, in the right light can replenish the spirit, offer a redemptive reward for life itself and rescue us from the ills that may be clouding our day. Its delicate beauty beguiles us; we easily get lost in its graceful presence and grandeur. It’s buds spilling forth to embrace and announce to world, I am here, come let me take you to places or joy. There is no doubt why this flower in its myriad array of colors, is often the flower of love; that euphoric something, that feeling, that rush of the heart, warm and glowing to be shared with another and the world.
