About Irises:

Irises are enchanting flowers that look as though they've been brushed onto the canvas of a garden by a skilled artist. With petals that gracefully arch in elegant formations, irises come in a stunning palette of colors including deep purples, sunny yellows, royal blues, and snowy whites. Each petal, with its unique shape and texture, seems to tell its own story, creating a captivating visual dance that's both bold and delicate.

The name "iris" isn't just for the flower; it's also the name of a Greek goddess. Iris was the goddess of the rainbow, serving as a messenger between the gods and humans. This connection to mythology adds a layer of magic to these flowers, as if each bloom is a colorful message from the heavens. The wide range of iris colors mirrors the vast spectrum of a rainbow, further linking the flower to its divine namesake and bringing a touch of the celestial to any garden or drawing.

When you start to draw or color irises, think about Iris, the Greek goddess for whom the flower is named. She was known as the messenger of the gods, using a rainbow as a bridge between heaven and earth to deliver messages. The iris flower is thought to represent this connection because of its wide range of colors and its regal appearance, reminiscent of a divine messenger.
