Gum Blossoms In Spring 1

Additional Information

Spring and gumnut blossoms by Ivana Pinaffo – I love these small flowers. The trees are blooming with them and I never stop to admire them during my morning walk.
EUCALYPTS, OR GUM TREES, are the Australian trees – as much a part of the landscape as far horizons and sweeping plains. Yet most eucalypts aren’t the giant, gnarled trees that come to mind. There are more than 900 species, and their bark, leaves, flowers and fruit (gumnuts) come in endless combinations of size, form, texture and colour. Although they’re endemic to Australia and a few islands immediately to the north, many eucalypt species are cultivated in tropical and temperate regions elsewhere for a variety of uses.

Unlike many flowers, the gum blossom doesn’t consist of petals. The colorful bloom is provided by the stamens, which attract pollinators such as insects or nectar-feeding birds. The petals are fused into the operculum, or cap (except in Angophora). While many gum blossoms are white, they come in a kaleidoscope of other colors, including sulphur, orange, vermilion, red, pink, lime and purple.
This is a small painting, the colors are soft and the texture is evident.
Lovely in any room and any decor.

Finished with satin varnish for protection. Sides are painted as continuation of painting.
