995 Cosmos: a Garden Odyssey


 

I grew these Cosmos in my rooftop garden.  I think they are a very under-appreciated flower.  Cosmos is the Greek word for harmony, and I believe that these beautiful flowers add harmony to any garden. It is thought that the word Cosmos is also the opposite of the word "chaos," which is how you might describe the beautiful explosion of color these simple flowers bring to the garden.  There are many colors of Cosmos available, but I focused on the white ones for this painting.  I love their simple beauty.
