This page is meant to mirror the many creative ways art has used portraying plants.This pic I made in Berlin tanti anni fa is a good illustration :showing how art using language and iconography of plants can transform primal objects to tell more.Sunflowers here are not only plastic kitsch, nor reminiscence of van Gogh,even not only symbol of endless summer, but in this case they flourish over a trabi……….the interpretation may be up to you.
I love the idea of following plants in art since they have been an inspiration for artists since time was monitored. Thank you for visiting my blog today, our botanic garden is very special.
Thank you for liking my posts about plants in art, I promise to do more.
Yes, please do more! This is a great idea.
I promise I will-meanwhile our inter generational sculpting workshop took place in botanical garden today-working on that post;)
I have a particular fancy for floral prints.
Thanks for visiting,I adore floral prints as well!
Reminds me of the big blue & yellow flower decals I had on my Volvo’s wheels “back in the day.” Love that floral feel.
Thank you-I also have Volvo ,but plain;)

Thank you, I took this picture in Berlin,

Images of flowers uplift the mundane. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you,I’ll try to do my best!
I paint with oil paint and my favorite subjects are flowers, they allways give me a lot of inspitation.
I like to paint, too , and I may agree with you about flowers!
Your photos are just beautiful!
What a happy looking Trabi!
Couldn’t resist taking a photo,perhaps because “Ich bin eine berlinerin !”
Tamara
How can that not bring a smile to those who watch it pass?
Indeed, that why I had to post it!

Thanks for dropping by my humble garden.
This picture is inspiring – I’m just wondering, what is it going to inspire?
Glad you like the picture,it is one of my favorites!
Thank you for visiting my blog and and liking my post. Your blog is a flowery one.
Thanks for that-I keep trying,anyway
Interesting idea. I like to think sometimes that I ‘paint’ with plants–sometimes the garden itself is a work of art. Hope you can come by my blog some time and see what sort of art I am growing: http://www.practicallygrown.com.
I absolutely agree with you-not only gardens but nature as-well is a work of art.You do have great blog
Thanks for liking my Tamborine Dreaming blog. I find yours delightful – in fact the whole matter of flowers in art is delightful. Years back I did a degree thesis (Asian Studies) on the role of flowers, and floral art, in Japanese literature. I maintain two other blogs which have to do with plants most of the time, http://www.gardenezi@wordpress.com and http://www.wix.com/jrlakemedia/ezibooks and you might like to visit these sometime. Tamborine Dreaming is a blog just to celebrate the beautiful place in which I live – a place in which both plants AND art flourish.
Thank you.Your blogs are great, I like the idea of easy gardening.You have great photos!
I love this!
Well-I try to make it OK-thank you!
Thank you for stopping by my blog! I enjoyed looking through yours. You have some great posts – thank you for sharing!

Thank you for visiting today, I love flowers, landscape and I am sure you managed to find few in my garden of painting. I enjoy visiting yours and will return.
