Sweet pea is a native of the China family of Pulses. The two words in the flower’s scientific name, “Lathyrus odoratus,” mean “fragrant” and also “very attractive”, and "blissful pleasure".
With its richly colored yet small, delicate flowers, the sweet pea's history can be traced back to 17th century Italy, when a Sicilian monk, Franciscus Cupani, sent its seeds to England. Although that original sweet pea bore little resemblance to the flower we know today, when Harry Eckford, a Scottish nurseryman, crossbred the original flower, he created the colorful, ornamental and sweetly scented sweet pea we know today.
Diamond imparts fearlessness, invincibility and fortitude. It clears emotional and mental pain, reducing fear and bringing about new beginnings. Stimulates creativity, inventiveness, imagination and ingenuity. It brings clarity of mind and aids enlightenment.
- Acrylic painting on canvas.
- 8" X 8" X 1-1/2" (unframed)
- Framing option is available. I offer a custom floater frame from a local framing shop. It is solid wood in an antique gold finish which complements the painting very well with a dash of elegance. Please allow 2 weeks for your piece to be custom framed and shipped. It will arrive ready to hang.
- If you decide to purchase the painting without framing, please allow 5 business days for your painting to be shipped. The sides of the canvas are painted to match the background color and it will arrive ready to hang.
