What I love about painting flowers is that they never die! That they will last longer than a week. A flower painting is certainly an investment, and better yet, it blooms all year round.
 
An assortment of native Australian flowers and foliage is propped up against a neutral grey-mauve wall in a bouquet of golden paper. The symbol of a barcode indicates they are supermarket flowers, and the strong cast shadow conveys a sense of realism, that this could be in your home. This floral arrangement is diverse that it could be for any occasion.
