Award-winning artwork –
May Your Days Be Filled With Light - Flowering Gum (2021) by HSIN LIN
40cm (W) x 50cm (H) x 3.5cm (D)
Ready to hang. Acrylic on canvas.
 
Affirmation: Stand still and proud. May our days be filled with light.
 
From where I live in Bayswater, there is a big field of forest nearby my studio. Recently I found out that the new growth gum tree was having its first bloom. I was obsessed with the delightful view of the sunlight reflected on those striking orange blossoms every time I walk past this particular tree.
It has become a routine of mine to paint the first bloom of the plant around my surrounding, now you are looking at my latest interpretation of my favorite gum tree.
 
CORYMBIA FICIFOLIA (BABY ORANGE), a tough Australian native plant with brilliant bright orange flowers in summertime, is quite common in urban areas, gardens and streetscapes.
New growth appears bronze-red then turns green providing a beautiful contrast of colour.
Eucalyptus flowers also have the symbolic meaning of Healing and Protection.
 
Flowers always bloom in their own time without competing with other flowers. May we all bloom in our time in the best season. Hope you enjoy this artwork of mine.

​I truly hope you enjoy this artwork as I do.
Stay safe wherever you are & happy collecting.
