"RED AMARYLLIS FLOWER BUDS TRIO" by YURI TOMASHEVI
A cluster of three amaryllis flowers is ready to unfold ...
This is a close up photograph of three red amaryllis flower buds showing also green leaves and stem.
That red amaryllis is a an amaryllis belladonna hybrid which was initially bred in the 1800s in Australia. It is now pretty common in USA.
Sometimes the common name "naked lady" is used for Amaryllis.
Amaryllis meaning legend (from Teleflora) - Red amaryllis began as a shy, timid nymph. Amaryllis fell deeply in love with shepherd Alteo. To win Alteo over Amaryllis followed the oracle of Delphi instructions. Amaryllis dressed in maiden's white and appeared at Alteo's door for 30 nights, each time piercing her heart with a golden arrow. When at last Alteo opened his door, there before him was a striking crimson flower, sprung from the blood of Amaryllis's heart.
Today the amaryllis has come to symbolize pride, determination and radiant beauty.
"Art color in decor" perspective for "Red Amaryllis Flower Buds Trio print": RED, GREEN - Complimentary red and green colors make each other look brighter in this photo.
Amaryllis is a bulbous plant, with each bulb being 5-10 cm (2.0-3.9 in) in diameter. It has several strap-shaped, green leaves, 30-50 cm (12-20 in) long and 2-3 cm (0.79-1.18 in) broad, arranged in two rows. Leafless stems are 30-60 cm tall, each of which bears a cluster of two to twelve funnel-shaped flowers at their tops. Each flower is 6-10 cm (2.4-3.9 in) diameter with six tepals (three outer sepals and three inner petals).

In the previous Billboard competitions, there was no winner with an abstract style image. I believe it is important for the contest participants, all FAA members, and any viewers to know that the diversity of top images in Billboard competitions could be expanded. My only entry in Billboard 2022 competitions is my abstract image "Dance of Colors Abstract Composition 1H", which had already won 1st place in the "Modern home colorful abstracts" contest. I think this image is worth your vote. *** Next is the link to vote for this image in the Billboard 2022 competition. *** https://fineartamerica.com/contests/billboard-contest-2022.html?tab=vote&artworkid=42876688
