Art makes us feel. That is one of its purposes.

Pink Swirls can be purchased as a wonderful gift or for yourself as a stunning example of contemporary flower art photography.

At a show recently, an art lover came in and gazed at this image of Pink Swirls and stood there for the longest time.

I could see she was immersed in the image and didn’t disturb her until she turned to me.

She said, “YOUR art makes ME happy!”

Totally unexpected and touched by this genuine expression of delight, I didn’t know what to say.

As I thought about this, I realized that all art is there to make us feel something.

You can agree with the artist or not, be delighted, or concerned, or moved to tears with emotion.

That is what makes good art.

And all images do not affect all people in the same way.

But if the artist can help another to feel something, then that piece is a success. I work with stunning contemporary flower art images to achieve that end.

Colors help to enhance the natural feeling a viewer has when looking at art.

Yellow in an image brings warmth and radiates sunshine to most viewers. The image below is so different from the Pink Daisy image above and it evokes a different feeling when viewed. When choosing wall art decor for your home, be sure to take into account the feeling you want to have when looking at the image.

These yellow tulips exude a feeling of happiness and aliveness. A “good morning sunshine” type of feel, if you will. This would be good in a morning room, a kitchen area, or a breakfast nook. A “wake up and start the day with a smile” type of image.

Different colors in wall decor evoke different feelings.

Now if you take the image below, with all the cool blues you get a much different calming feeling. As you gaze at this image, you can be reminded of summer days by the lake, or at your cabin. This image evokes an entirely different feeling. Better hung in an area where you want to have a peaceful vibe, maybe to wind down at the end of the day.
