Crocus is a limited edition print illustrated by Derek Hess, symbolic of awakening, transformation, and the first surge of color after a long winter. This image is part of an ongoing, multi-year Flower Of The Month series of drawings and limited edition prints released on the first of each month at derekhess.com.

Crocuses are among the earliest blooms of the season, often emerging through frost-covered soil as winter loosens its grip. Their sudden burst of purple, gold, and white against an otherwise muted landscape has long been associated with renewal, youthful energy, and the return of light. In many traditions, the crocus represents cheerfulness, rebirth, and the quiet but undeniable shift from darkness toward growth.

Crocus Print serves as a reminder that change can arrive boldly pushing through resistance, breaking through cold ground, and declaring that a new season has begun. It speaks to resilience, but also to vibrancy the moment when endurance turns into forward motion.
