:: Lilac :: 

Introducing a Wildthorne exclusive watercolor, handcrafted to capture the calm beauty of its botanical namesake. A granular wash of soft lilac with undertones of rosy pink, each stroke reveals a delicate surprise, echoing the subtle elegance of the flower itself.

Lilac flowers have long been adored for their enchanting fragrance and delicate beauty. With lush clusters of blooms and a scent that invokes springtime. Cultivated for centuries, they are native to Eastern Europe and Asia, and first brought to Britain in the 16th century, where their sweet scent and vibrant colors quickly captured hearts. 

Rich in symbolism, lilacs embody renewal, new beginnings, love, and remembrance—among the first blooms of spring, they are a graceful emblem of growth and devotion.
