“A lot of the images I use, animals, plants and things have to do with the mystery of consciousness. It’s waking up to the world and to life and realizing everything is conscious and alive and connected… the beauty of it all, animals, nature, plants, flowers, trees, plants, galaxies… It’s magic.”

👩‍🌾 L'Illustration horticole: Gand, Belgium: Imprimerie et lithographie de F. et E. Gyselnyck, 1854-1896. Original source Image description: Illustration of Dipladenia Atropurpurea, featuring vibrant deep red, trumpet-shaped flowers with five broad petals each. The flowers are accompanied by numerous green leaves, some with slightly wavy edges and subtle vein patterns. A few flower buds are visible, showing a gradient from pink to red. The plant’s slender stems are also depicted, with a natural, cascading arrangement. The botanical illustration is detailed and lifelike, set against a plain, light background, typical of 19th-century horticultural prints from “L'Illustration Horticole” published in Gand, Belgium.

I know re-blogging is what helps keep this medium alive and vibrant and I do it so rarely but I saw this and said, “I’ll re-blog that.” I was struck by a whim.
