Inspiration: Crocus sativus
Saffron service to humanity began more than 1400 BC to date, it was and still is used as a seasoning, very famous for its coloring properties.
It also makes its appearance in perfumery and ancient medicine.
For this execution, the paint has been contaminated with acrylic gold pigment; just like gold's, Saffron "extraction" is expensive.Crocus sativus, is NOT to be confused with Colchicum, they look similar, they are both beautiful, but the latter is toxic.
