The Dahlia Flower

This plant is very similar to the Zinnia, Sunflower, Daisy and Chrysanthemum and is part of the Asteraceae family. I love this flower the most because of it's beautiful design and vibrant colors. I have incorporated this flower in many photographs as well as artwork.

I photographed this Dahlia flower a couple years ago from someone's garden. I was immediately drawn to the gradient from bold to soft pink.

"Sunset Dahlias" - 12"x12" Batik on Silk. This photograph on the left helped to inspire my batik artwork. I chose this flower for its beautiful layers and colors as well.
