Piece description from the artist
One April, while visiting family in Arizona, I ventured outside to get a closer look at this magnificent, yet thorny bush. In its entirety, the color is spectacular. But looking closer, there was another story to be had. What many people think are the blooms of the bougainvillea, are not actually blooms at all. The showy paper-like ‘petals’ are modified leaves called bracts. The actual flowers, which are hidden inside, are quite tiny, trumpet-shaped and in colors of white or yellow. I found this flower coming to life nestled in such softness. The lighting was ideal to showcase the true star of the shot.
