Soul keeper

“Soul keeper” is a circular bouquet of harmony beauty. Flowers are not ordinary but fantastical. The petals are iridescent, shimmering with the colors of a peacock’s feathers. In the center of the bouquet, a majestic peacock emerges, its tail feathers fanned out in a mesmerizing display that seamlessly blends with the flowers. The peacock’s feathers have an ethereal quality, swirling into the floral arrangement, creating a sense of unity between the bird and the blooms. The background is a soft, hazy gradient that complements the vivid colors of the bouquet, adding to the surreal atmosphere. The painting is circular, enhancing the continuous flow of the composition and drawing the viewer into this enchanting and otherworldly vision of beauty.

According to Greek mythology, the peacock was a bird sacred to Hera, queen of the gods, wife of Zeus and patron saint of women, marriage and childbirth.

In the present painting the peacock also symbolises the protection of the soul which gives people peaceful and happy mind. When we feel calm everything gains extra smell, music becomes paradise melody and we feel safe. Peacocks are surrounded by flowers and floral environment. Golden and bluish tail of a left bird is shining and fall in love with his beauty.

The most famous myth involving the peacock relates to Argus Panoptes, a giant with a hundred eyes. Hera employed Argus to watch over Io, one of Zeus’s lovers whom Hera had turned into a cow. Argus was known for his ability to keep watch because, while some of his eyes would sleep, others remained awake, making him an excellent guardian.

Zeus, wanting to free Io, sent Hermes to slay Argus. After Hermes lulled Argus to sleep with music and killed him, Hera mourned the loss of her faithful servant. In her grief, she took Argus’s hundred eyes and placed them on the tail of her sacred bird, the peacock. This is why peacock feathers are often depicted with eye-like patterns, symbolizing Argus’s eyes.

The peacock, therefore, became a symbol of Hera’s watchfulness, pride, and sometimes her jealousy. It also represents immortality and resurrection, as the bird was believed to renew its feathers annually. The peacock’s association with Hera highlights the themes of beauty, protection, and divine power in Greek mythology.
