Description
Every flower has something special to tell a person. Whether you are giving flowers as a gift or just having them for your own enjoyment. We use flowers to express ourselves in every possible way. Artists of every medium, are inspired by the beauty they see in nature and they use that beauty to create their own works of art.
I have certainly enjoyed all the artistic possibilities with my deep red geraniums. I believe these are the Pinto Premium F1 Series Deep Red Geraniums. Although they do resemble the Calliope Dark Red and the Daredevil Claret. So all the flora experts can share their opinion as to which one this is. There are many different varieties of these flowers growing all around the world.
It is difficult in my Arizona Sonoran Desert landscape that surrounds me, to keep critters from eating up the garden flowers. They are kept in a somewhat protective area. So...”so far, so good,” as the saying goes. Since geranium flowers are gentle and fragile, it is no wonder that this flower in particular is the symbol of gentility and kind nature.
In times when it is hard to survive with all the daily stresses of life, these beautiful geranium flowers can really bring a smile to your face. The beauty of geranium flowers is in their simplicity and humbleness. "Ravishing Red" flowers like these, can help us feel closer to each other, and make our lives more colorful and beautiful.

Aw Jerry! So sweet of you to stop by my gallery and share your ever encouraging and inspiring thoughts about my artwork. I really have developed a love for capturing various varieties of flowers in all their variations, each bloom taking on their own different look. There are so many artistic possibilities, without using a photography program, that I don’t have. I love flowers in black and white too.

Deepa!! What a lovely surprise! It has been a while. So nice to see you again. Thank you for stopping by and sharing your impressions about my artwork. I am delighted that you feel this is wow and a spectacular capture. I missed you being here, wondered what happened to you. You know I email FAA members when I see they have been missing, but feel intrusive at times, and I don't always hear back. For me I begin to form attachments to those who have been so supportive, and share such lovely work. I am doing as well as can be expected, and it is so sweet and thoughtful of you to ask!!! I am happy you visited as well, come as often as you have time for. You are always welcome. I also appreciate you choosing this as one of your favorites. 💕Janet
