Blue Illusion

I have always been drawn to the image of a simple flower that holds so many deep secrets and feelings for the beholder.
Each flower has its own essence and soul that it shares with the person viewing its beauty.
To each of us a flower speaks in its own secret language, The Secret Language of Flowers has another worldly meaning to each and every one of us.
With Blue Illusion I have attempted to convey this mystery, this illusion that speaks out to us from the mists of ancient times. Taking us back to the beauty of courtly China and the exotic Blue of the flowers has the ability to stir the sensual feminine desires of the Divine Feminine within us all.
