thinking about flower tree umbrellas again.
The first thing that you picture when you think of the word "rain."
i’m cheating a bit here- rain reminds of this old piece i never really finished cuz i was having a hard time liking how it was turning out. still not quite where i want it to be- but it feel a bit better now. when asked what my favorite flower is, I say “sunflowers” and most people presume it’s because it’s sunny and cheery, and although there is that- there is also another reason: in japan, there’s something roughly translated to “flower words” where certain flowers have certain meanings to them, for sunflowers the flower words are “i only have eyes for you” because of the belief that sunflowers follow the sun. it’s a symbol of longing, of devotion, and/or a one sided love.
listening to the coraline ost for the upteempth time- and it's still a beautiful music box of raindrops and haunting melodies.
