Piece description from the artist
I was drawn to this unusual tulip and the rich, vibrant streaks of purple contrasted against the white petals. I like to have a place for the eye to land & rest, so I used selective focus and a shallow depth of field to turn all the attention to this white and purple tulip. I wanted a hint of the complementing back ground, so I included it with a soft and blurred background. The end result is a peaceful, serene image
