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!

  1. Not easy to replicate but the artist did a very fine job of it. Beautiful still life. Why do we say still life I wonder. There is always so much life pulsing through everything!

    1. True. I know it came from painting. A moment frozen in time. Think of those paintings with a petal falling from the boquet. Love them! Cheers & thank you my friend. I would like some custard too please! When you find the time???????

    1. I thought of you when I posted the Kashmir box and our discussion of the underpaid artists who create these beautiful pieces of art, so I am glad you liked it. Cheers~

  2. Amazing photos, as usual. I love how the dark/black background makes the colours and details of the flowers become more lively and stunning.

    1. 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!
