Bringing the beauty in~
Snow pea bush
Roses, Butterfly Bush, Blue Sage.

Variegated Rose.
If you want the beauty to last, look at this handpainted box from Kashmir India. It is one box from different angles.
Each box is painted with a single hair bush, requiring years for the artist to make.
It’s not easy replicating mother nature!

Yes, I had fun with that! I used a black towel on a board and a black napkin on the bottom, but it still wasn’t quite right, so I increased the darkness, and the flowers popped out. I was surprised and pleased! Thank you for diserning this Halim & cheers to you!
