During the California wildflower Superbloom of 2019, I was totally amazed at all the floral beauty, as if God had poured molten gold paint over the Temblor Range as seen in this uncropped photo.
Hillside daisies (Monolopia lanceolata) gloriously blanket the slopes, accented by splashes of royal purple lavendar phacelia. In the field, muted orange blossoms of fiddlenecks (genus Amsinckia) make a lovely contrast with touches of more hillside daisies.
This brilliant and colorful landscape of flowers represents a foretaste of things to come, as the sheer magnificence of Heaven itself awaits those who love and follow the Messiah Yeshua Jesus.
“But as it is written:
‘Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.’”
~ 1 Corinthians 2:9 (NKJV) [cross-reference: Isaiah 64:4]

Artwork notes:
This art image and others in my portfolio are available as museum-quality fine art prints, framed and unframed. Please kindly see the ordering options on this page.
Embedded in the top right-hand corner is the Hebrew acronym for "B'ezras Hashem" [ב ס " ד] meaning "with God's help". It is a reminder to me as an artist and photographer of my dependence on the Almighty, the Originator of all creativity. This is a similar acknowledgement used by great artists like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel who signed their work with the Latin phrase, "Soli Deo gloria" which means, "Glory to God alone".
