"Why I'm Painting Birth Flowers: A Journey of Love, Hope, and Beauty"

This is August's flower: The Poppy

​Each Painting Is A Gift of Nature’s Message – And A Chance to Bring Some Joy into Your Life (Or Someone Else’s!)

I've always been drawn to working in series. There’s something about having a creative path that continuously evolves that really excites me. It gives me a clear direction, yet still allows space for new ideas to blossom (pun intended!). A few months ago, I found myself pondering my next big focus. What did I want to dive into? What would feel meaningful and connect with people in a way that felt authentic?

That’s when the symbolism of floriography (flower language) really caught my eye. I had never looked at flowers in this way before. There was this quieter time, back in the day, when giving someone a particular bouquet of flowers had a deep meaning, a secret message. Sort of like how we send texts today, but much more poetic and beautiful! I love the idea that something so natural could carry such weight in its symbolism. And honestly, it just felt right to me.

Then, with 2025 being such a transformative year in my life, I decided it was time to create a series of paintings based on the birth flowers for each month. I want to share messages of love, hope, and beauty with the world—because, let’s face it, we could all use more of those things right now, right?

Flowers, to me, are nature’s little reminders to slow down and appreciate the present moment. They’re these tiny tokens of joy that pop up around us every day, often unnoticed. But when you stop and really take in their beauty, they’re incredibly powerful. So, this project is my way of not only creating something visually beautiful but also sharing a deeper connection to nature’s messages.

What’s even more exciting is that each of these paintings will be available for sale. Whether you're looking for a unique piece of art for your own space or a thoughtful gift for someone special, these birth flower paintings would make a perfect, meaningful gift. Every flower holds its own story, and I hope these pieces can help spread a little light and love wherever they go.

I'm so excited for you to see them! Stay tuned for the series to unfold, and in the meantime, you can watch them blossom on Instagram at art_of_eleatta. I hope you’ll enjoy the magic of these flowers just as much as I have while creating them. Thanks for following along with me on this journey.
