Passiflora

April 2007. Acrylic on canvas. 70 x 60 cm (27,5 x 23,6 inches).
Just one single passionflower is such a miracle of beauty, elegance and creativity....
The good thing is that only a few flowers appear at the same time. In that way you can admire them one by one (they deserve it)... and you can enjoy the beauty for weeks. The energy is rejuvenating, fresh, and inspiring. There is also a tender, loving quality to it. As there is to many other flowers.

(there are many different species of this flower, take a look at the Dutch site of
Henk Wouters for an impression)
