natasha
azalea, nightshade, tiger lilysam
bird of paradise, delphinium, zinniafor the anon who asked if i was doing more (x), and visardist who suggested zinnias for sam (x) – i decided to add more variety for sam just because, while sticking to comic book falcon colours for the zinnias.
for natasha: azaleas for temperance and passion (apparently sending a bouquet of azaleas was quite a known death threat as azaleas are actually toxic), nightshade (as anon suggested) as its other name is belladona such that nat is as deadly as she is beautiful, and tiger lilies for her passion and feminity.Â
for sam: because the bird of paradise looks akin to a colourful bird in flight- that is what sam is: distinctive and spectacular, blue delphiniums for loyalty and levity, zinnias for goodness and constancy/lasting affection.

astra, forget-me-not, star of bethlehamBucky
sunflower, daffodilI wanted to make some flower crowns but I’m not very good with drawing or painting them- I’m sorry. forget-me-nots because it’s about enduring love and faith, star of bethleham because “illuminating” (and star), and astra is another symbol for star (lol), plus a talisman of love. daffodils because of forgiveness and its tenacity to return after the harshest of winter, and sunflowers because of its radiance and ability to lift spirits – though perhaps sunflowers would always be more true of pre-ws bucky. my original idea was to paint dead flowers for bucky but that would have been really, really dark.
I want to make you feel beautiful
