IRIS<\/em> from Cirque du Soleil<\/p>\n Impact Reporting & Investment Standards<\/p>\n restaurant in New Orleans<\/p>\n In Greek mythology, Iris<\/em> is the personification of the rainbow and messenger of the gods. She is also known as one of the goddesses of the sea and the sky. (Wikipedia<\/a>)<\/p>\n Illinois Research Information System<\/p>\n Iris Murdoch, born July 5, 1919<\/p>\n Iris<\/em> Murdoch – “Love is the extremely difficult realization that something other than oneself is real.”<\/p>\n Definition<\/a>: (Anatomy) “The iris<\/b> (plural: irides<\/b><\/i> or irises<\/b><\/i>) is a thin, circular structure in the eye<\/a>, responsible for controlling the diameter and size of the pupil<\/a> and thus the amount of light reaching the retina<\/a>. The color of the iris is often referred to as “eye color<\/a>.”- (Wikipedia)<\/p>\n Definition<\/a>: (Plant)- “Iris<\/b><\/i> is a genus<\/a> of 260\u2013300[1]<\/a><\/sup>[2]<\/a><\/sup> species<\/a> of flowering plants<\/a> with showy flowers<\/a>. It takes its name from the Greek<\/a> word for a rainbow<\/a>, referring to the wide variety of flower colors found among the many species.[3]<\/a><\/sup> As well as being the scientific name, iris<\/i> is also very widely used as a common name for all Iris<\/i> species, though some plants called thus belong to other closely related genera. A common name for some species is ‘flags’, while the plants of the subgenus<\/a> Scorpiris<\/a><\/i> are widely known as ‘junos<\/a>‘, particularly in horticulture<\/a>. It is a popular garden flower.<\/p>\n The often-segregated, monotypic<\/a> genera Belamcanda<\/a><\/i> (blackberry lily), Hermodactylus<\/a><\/i> (snake’s head iris), and Pardanthopsis<\/a><\/i> (vesper iris) are currently included in Iris<\/i>.”(Wikipedia)<\/p>\n Post the direct URL (link) where your drawing, doodle, artwork is posted (e.g. your blog, Flickr) in the comments area of this post. I would really like to keep all the artwork together and provide a way for others to see your work and\/or your blog.<\/p>\n We are also talking about this on Twitter. Use the hashtag #CPP<\/p>\n The Creative Prompt Project, also, has a Flickr group<\/a>, which you can join to\u00a0 post your responses.
