Seductive like the song of the silence in the night
A view on flowers like you have never seen them before...
Two, three buds,
four flowers, waiting
A hand dips the brush
and paints with morning light
Early in the morning. Nature waits for the sun's first rays…
Life is painted with a brush of light.

Dance with the light
like dreams in the sky
on the scents of a
bright spring morning
The blossom of a Japanese cherry tree.

A warm summer day
The garden breathes colors
Flowers whispering

Longing for that morning
I remember the garden
where I used to walk
Alone among the flowers
as the sun rose
into a calm spring day
A walk through a flower garden, early on a spring morning. Musing amidst the flowers, is it a memory, or a dream?

Longing flower, gold
splashes on fragile
petals, dancing
in the sun's first light
It's early in the morning. A beautiful iris opens its flower and turns toward the sun. The petals bathe themselves in light, seeming to dance in slow motion.
Longing for that evening
I remember the garden
where I used to walk
Alone among the flowers
as the sun drowned
into a warm summer night
Weeks later, the allium has finished blooming. Her exuberant colors fade to an earthy brown, seed pods form where the purple has sacrificed itself so the seeds can ripen.
And then the seed pods open, the seeds slowly becoming visible, until the flower is ready to release them and the earth takes care of them.
Young flowers dance in a green haze of sunlight, a morning serenade in blue.

Holding on to my dream,
slowly
awakened by a
kiss of light
Time to wake up from another spring dream....
Spring is a time of amazement. Amazement at the speed with which plants grow, develop flower buds, form leaves. And from the smallest of seeds, in only a few weeks, a plant germinates, greedily seeking light, reaching for the sky.
Longing for that morning,
I remember the garden
where I used to walk
Alone among the flowers
as the sun rose
into a long summer day
A walk through a flower garden, early on a summer morning. Musing amidst the allium, is it a memory, or a dream?
Longing for that morning
I remember the garden
where I used to walk
Alone among the fading flowers
as the sun rose
into a colorful autumn day
A walk through a flower garden, early on an autumn morning. Musing amidst the faded allium, is it a memory, or a dream?
As a background for this artwork I used a fragment of a watercolor painting by the fantastic Swedish painter Ingela Wallgren Lindgren.

Nature yawns, colors wake up
Dancing through the garden,
take my hand, I want to pirouette
The Iris is a fascinating flower, especially if you look at it very closely....
My smile may be
smooth, inside I am
still wild at heart
The tulip. A cultivated flower, sleek and smooth, that doesn’t really appeal to me.
But even such a flower – perfected to human taste – must have a wild side, which we normally don’t see, don’t you think?
The results of a search to the heart of the tulip in 3 photos, an answer to the question if there is still something of the original wild variety in the flower as we know it…

A plant of which I have made several series of minimalistic photos is the giant hogweed. The seed pods of the faded plant look like spaceships, ready to disappear into the light after they have released their seeds.
Withering flowers awaken, leaning
against the pale white morning light.
Untouchable, like a dream high in the sky
A quiet autumn morning in our garden. It seems to be a beautiful day, the sky is without clouds. The last flowering plants awaken, shivering in the chilly breeze.
I made this photo of the Prunus serrulata, the Japanese cherry, in the garden of the house where we lived in The Netherlands.

Fading bloom
Into the autumn days
Lost sensitivity
The fading flowers of an ornamental onion

The flowers move slowly,
colors and scents mingle
The senses of summer
A warm summer day. Colors, scents and sounds blend into a slow rhythm that undulates over the land.
Nature slowly moves along with this summer song.
A flower, ready
for the morning sun,
to unfold and bloom
Tiny wild flowers, two of them already fading, one waiting to explode in beautiful colors...
The sound of a light breeze
Cherry blossom petals
dazzeld into the light
Spring approaches maturity. A warm, gentle breeze blows the petals of fading cherry blossoms into the light.
Naked trees awakening
blushing petals, long green sprouts
bringing a fresh promise
A Japanese Cherry, always the first tree to bloom in spring. A promise for what is to come !
