The series “Floral Essence” comes to a finale. A post about the Amaryllis feels like the perfect subject at the right time with which to conclude this series.

As holidays near, wax-dipped Amaryllis bulbs show up in the shops, ready to brighten the gray winter days with color.

Named from the Greek word for “to sparkle,” it is fitting that the Amaryllis blooms in winter, around Christmas.

Given their sturdy stems and vertical profile, Amaryllis symbolize strength, pride, and determination. When the flowering phase ends, you can cut the stem and preserve the bulb; it will flower again next year. With proper care, it can live for up to 75 years.

There are realities we know even though we can’t see them. There are forces beyond those which we see. Wind is a clear example of this reality. We can’t see the wind. What we can see is the effect of the wind.

These three images are graphic examples of that fact. The first image is looking through the surface of the Atlantic Ocean at the shapes of a sandbank created by the wind and tides moving the sand under the water. We don’t see the wind even though it helped create these beautiful forms.

The second image shows an elegant line on the edge of a large sand dune in Arabia. The wind moves the millions of particles of sand, reshaping an enormous sand dune. Even when we can see sand blowing off the edge of a dune, we are not seeing the wind but what the wind left behind.

The third image is a familiar image of a wave being shaped by the partnership of the moon and the unseen wind.

We see the trees sway, the grass bend when the wind moves. Our knowledge of the natural world informs us that the wind is at work. A higher knowing is our intuition, which takes us beyond the physical plane to the dynamics of energy active in the atmosphere, where the recipe of the elements is creating the forces that shape life around us. When we attune to this alchemy, nature is given a chance to teach us that there is an inner knowing which goes beyond what we “know”.

You will not receive many emails from me, only when I have something of value to share. I hate getting swamped with sales emails, and I figure you do too.

Time and life’s conditions bring about change. This cedar tree with the markings of wind, rain and snow, deep cold and searing sun shows us that beauty and grace remain even though the cedars stately and grand posture has passed.

This mission church is one of the oldest churches in America dedicated to San Francisco de Asis. It is an outstanding example of adobe mission architecture. Constructed between 1813 & 1815. Ranchos de Taos, New Mexico.

The clean lines and earthen materials make it a kindered spirit to modern architecture from the Sarasota School of Architecture. They both integrate the outdoor environment with the architecture using simple materials and clean lines in the design.

Peel and stick mural for online video meetings.

The Covid-19 Pandemic has affected the way we communicate. Millions of people are using apps like Zoom, Facetime, Google Meet, Skype, etc. Many users are sitting in front of bookshelves, doors, windows and a range of objects that draw attention away from you and distract.

Consider upping your online presence and go professional. Select an image that can be printed on a removable peel and stick wall mural.

Contact me to find a beautiful affordable background. The print can be modest in size to fit behind you when online or it can be wall paper that covers an entire wall.

When you want or need to change the image simply peel it away from the wall (leaving no marks or damage to the wall) roll it up to use another time. Then attach the new print.
