I am fascinated by the mountainous landscape following the snow melt when everything slowly comes to life in vibrant colors.  The flower fields spring up in these environments, away from most people, hidden in beautiful secluded places.  I feel that purple flowers in particular are a sign of the arrival of Spring. I often see them shooting up through the snow letting us know that its that time of the year. The piece was inspired by something I would often imagine prior to moving to Colorado ~ myself in a purple field like the one that I’ve created in this mosaic. I wanted there to be a variety of flowers some more pink some more blue but all in harmony with each other existing in that magical moment when its their turn to come out from the earth for that brief moment and to breath in the pure mountain air. I was happy to discover that many meadows like this exits here in the Rocky Mountains.
