Description
Come Hither
*****
The aroma of flowers, from which we have borrowed our perfumes, while extremely powerful, has been from the beginning entirely seductive in its intentions. A rose is a rose is a rogue. Perfume, fundamentally, is the sexual attractant of flowers, or, in the case of civet and musk, of animals. Squeezed from the reproductive glands of plants and creatures, perfume is the smell of creation, a sign dramatically delivered to our senses of the Earth's regenerative powers--a message of hope and a message of pleasure.
From: Jitterbug Perfume, by Tom Robbins

So here you have it, a festive party of an orchid flower, a message of hope and a message of pleasure. This one was painted on location at Denver Botanic Gardens Orangery, amidst the delightful scent of citrus trees blossoming. Perhaps I met you there? I meet a good many people when I am not particularly trying to. And if so, perhaps you remember this orchid, or one of its sisters��
*****
Come Hither is a lavender, pink, magenta, mauve and yellow, yes, radiant, concoction of floral temptation, just looking for a pollinating insect or two to entice.
