About Broad Bloom

Broad Bloom offers notecards and stationary products mindful of the seasons of the year, as well as the seasons of our lives. In 2021, I was inspired to finally follow my passion for painting, and Broad Bloom was a natural progression of sharing my love of nature. My lifelong passion has been communicating visual ideas, whether it be through the computer or paintbrush. I can get lost in the details of a flower, or ear of field corn. I immerse myself in studying seasonal vegetation. While observing each plant, I take time to research the floral meanings and history. Adding symbolization to the back of these notecard such as; "virtue", "harmony", or "dignity" helps inspire written words for the sender, and deepen the intention of sending each message. Broad Bloom offers a gentle reminder of seasonal change, and delivers comforting images of familiar botanical friends. - Created by Barb Thompson, Botanical ArtistRead their story
