This little painting is a small burst of bright colour. It features pink dahlias on a cooler background of sky-blue and Australian blue gum colours.
Pink and purple dahlias have typically been a symbol for grace, kindness, love and beauty .
Dahlia’s are stunning flowers which can bring much joy with their gorgeous colours and interesting petals.
Whilst they can produce an abundance of show stopping blooms they need the right conditions to thrive. They prefer moist, well drained soil area where they can get plenty of sun but protection from strong winds. Too much water and their tubers can rot. They like to be fertilised, but too much nitrogen and it may compromise on the flower quantity. To encourage lateral growth and more flowers, the tips can be pinched. Regular cutting flowers can help promote further flowering. These flowers thrive with the right conditions and nurturing.
What helps you to thrive?
This piece was named sow and reap as it depicts a metaphor for one’s actions and reaping the consequence of those actions.
