Red Poppy Flower Symbolism

The beautiful Red Poppy has rich and meaningful symbolism. Its flower develops in a cup-like shape, representing our emotional spirits and the need to "fill the cup" with the nurturing of Self. It is linked to self esteem and personal power, therefore inspiring one to immerse themselves with the things that make them feel confident in their "own".  The color Red represents Survival, Power, and how one Walks in this World. Bringing the shape and color together, it reminds us that when we stand confident and tall in our being that our personal power helps us to achieve unlimited possibilities on our Path.  The Red Poppy is Strength and Power within our Body, Mind, and Spirit.  When you are feeling drained or have doubts, bringing Red Poppies into your home can inspire one to come back into balance and take care of Self. Their long stems encourage us to reach for the sky and make our dreams happen. This is my new Original Contemporary Folk painting t

Love Pushes through the Shadows - Symbolism of the Red Tree

The world can be a complicated place, filled with ups and downs, joys and sorrows . Lesson upon lesson is given to us to work through. While some days we are graced to encounter some beautiful souls and situations, other times the moments may be a bit more challenging. This is when our spirits long to feel treasured, accepted, loved, and supported. It is all too easy in that longing to feel alone in this great big place. Ease your fears, for the truth is that Love, pure unconditional love, can push through the shadows on even the darkest of days. You will never walk alone, for you are always embraced. Original Contemporary Folk Art Painting titled "Love Pushes through the Shadows" by Jeanne Fry. The Red Tree is symbolic for the passion and strength of our spirit. The heart pushes through the deep complex webbing of the branches, letting the light shine through. Listed in my Etsy shop here Red Tree with Heart Original Painting on Etsy

I celebrate our human diversity and the beauty that each of our unique beings possess. While some may find it comfortable to blend in, finding comfort in a more subtle existence...I appreciate taking the courageous path of stepping into one's own and showing our True Colors. The coupling of our Similarities and our Differences fosters a rich and expanding world. The Similarities comfort us in this big land of the unknown, and our Differences encourage us to grow and thrive like an individual bloom within a field of flowers, each being an important piece of the bigger picture. When we shine and allow our True Colors to show, we encourage the next person to do the same, until soon the landscape is a cornucopia of lavish beauty. These feelings are what inspired my painting "True Colors", bringing the courage of uniqueness alive within the Turtle's Shell. Each turtle has its similarities , but their shells offer a peak at their individual spirit.  Today, may all
