Giclée print on beautiful matt Hahnemuhle Fine Art Photo Rag paper depicting a still life of red tulips with a yellow heart. The tulip is native to Central Asia and Turkey. Tulips are often associated with love, loyalty, and abundance. They are often given as gifts to express romantic love, as well as to celebrate friendship and loyalty. The shape of the tulip's petals can also be seen as a symbol of abundance, as they can resemble the shape of a bowl or cup overflowing with wealth and prosperity. Red tulips are often associated with love and passion, while yellow tulips can represent happiness and friendship. In my photographic process, I utilize semi-transparent layers to create a dreamlike and painterly aesthetic when capturing the beauty of the botanical specimen. The diffusion of light through the layers softens and blurs the edges of the subject, evoking the style of traditional paintings. This technique is achieved entirely in-camera, without any post-production manipulation.
