Cosmos symbolize order​,​ harmony​,​ and balance​,​ as well as love and joy. Memorialize the tenderness you feel for your beloved pet by preserving their ashes in the petals of this symbolic flower. Each painting is hand painted by me to order​,​ using the ashes of your pet. I start by tracing the outline of your chosen flower onto the 9” by 12” canvas paper​,​ and begin by mixing a small amount of your fur baby's ashes with each color of paint. Your beloved pet's ashes will be present in every aspect of the painting​,​ although not visible. The painting is then finished with a protective varnish​,​ to seal the ashes and the painting. Every painting will be slightly different​,​ with variations in color and texture. The price of each painting includes a prepaid ashes collection kit​,​ which will be sent to your address soon after your order is placed. The kit includes a small tin and a prepaid envelope to send the ashes back to my studio. If you have any questions​,​ please send me a message here on LoveCoda!
