WATERCOLOR INK WAX RESIST
MIRACLE OMEN PAPERWHITES
THE STORY....:)
One of my daughter's gifts to me for Christmas was a Paperwhite(Narcissus)...kit.
That is a lovely ceramic pot containing a plastic bag of soil and one of bulbs.
I followed directions and planted the bulbs in the soil and put them in a dark place to develop roots, which in this case was behind the bar an the back corner. I promptly forgot about them. That was about Dec 28th...2008.
On Inauguration morning just after Obama's speech I happened to look back there and there were my Miracle Paperwhites. One spike/stem was IN BLOOM....already....Jan. 20, 2009! 24 DAYS from planting the little brown bulbs!!!
Immediately I thought of the GOOD OMEN that this was..the white flowers a sign of purity and peace.
I wanted this painting to capture the feeling of the flowers...a sign of peace and light, coming out of the darkness.
I join you all in joyfulness in the new positive possibilities and an energy of prosperity and love for all.
