Lilies-studio version sold



Dark water with light green plates floating on top. What a subject. This was done from a digital image which I intended to use for an underpainting to be finished in the field. However, while working in the studio on a grisaille we had terrible rain storms for several days which submerged and tattered the pads. So, the painting had to be finished in the studio. The good part is that several weeks later I returned to the spot and found a group in good shape and did a painting on location which precedes this image on the Blogspot.

I like the bright green in the foregound and how the leaves are less green toward the top. Nice composition.
