uhhh

sorry to tell you this, but animals and furries are explicitly a weak point of mine. Definitely did not start off doing furry art.

Repostober 27 - 2015

A small series of "Flower Language" (and leaves) portraits for some gems. I definitely did research (though couldn't tell you the sources anymore) and picked stuff out for all the major characters but only finished these three. Actually I found the notes doc I made, helpfully with reference pictures, so I can tell you what each of these ones are and what they mean! Under the cut.

Amethyst

Clematis (large light purple flowers) - Artifice/Trickery

Larch (pink and berry-looking) - Audacity

Sloe (blue berries) - Difficulty

London Pride (white with pink spots and middle) - Frivolity

Jewelweed (purple heart-shaped flowers) - Impatience

Coriander (background foliage, small ruffled leaves) - Hidden Worth

Peridot

Hollyhock (white, sort of trumpet shaped flowers) - Ambition

Euphorbia (small yellow flowers in clusters of three) - Persistence

Rose, yellow (...I think you know what a rose looks like.) - Jealousy

Clotbur (large three-pointed leaves) - Rudeness

Lapis Lazuli

Mourning Bride (large bunches of tiny white flowers) - "I have lost all"

Anemone (white star shaped flowers with deep blue middle) - Forsaken

Columbine, blue (Small white flower with long periwinkle outer petals) - Desertion

Jacob's Ladder (small purple flowers with long stamens) - "Come down"

Aloe vera (long thin spiked leaves) - Grief

Oak Leaves (wiggly? hopefully recognizable lol) - Bravery

I remember looking at a lot of different sources to get the kinds of meanings I was looking for. Not the usual stuff for bouquets that all mean varying levels of love and friendship and whatnot. So some of these could be kind of made up! You can never trust the internet. But I tried.
