Winter Heliotrope

 

Looking for the sun

where there is none to be found

a winter beauty

A cheeky little mosaic flower from Angus below the front window of what used to be the It’s All 2 Much art gallery in Stokes Croft. Now, either this is reasonably new (I don’t think it is) or I have been wandering around with my head in the sky. This particular design was used by Angus at Upfest 2017 and there are a few of them in Bedminster, but I’ve not noticed this one in Stokes Croft before.

Always witty and pushing for new ideas, Angus has created this Mario Brothers flower using mosaic tiles, which give it a pixellated look a la video game. So good to see his work in North Bristol… something of a rarity for this artist.

Look up, they are there

thousands of modest flowers

hang out in the sun.

Undeniably

new season is in full swing

a little early.

For one day only

sumptuous magnificence;

blink and you’ll miss it.

Magnolia blooms

have all but gone; early Spring

Celandine

delicate flower

beautiful beyond compare

yet beauty deceives

as you spread your roots and leaves

you’ll not be mine celandine

A single daisy

awakens deep memories

of carefree childhood.
