Time for some lilies ....

I tend to have about four paintings on the go and they all seem to get finished around the same time, hence the gap between posts. Maybe I should aim for one post a week at least, but that would mean being disciplined and the shock may be too much for my system ;-)
So, here are some lilies from the garden. I intentionally left out all the leaves and stems as I wanted them to be free of clutter in this nice little arrangement.
The background is really shades of dark green but I couldn't adjust the photo any more without bleaching out the petals, so it's a compromise.
More photos coming over this week so please pop back :-)

  1. this is probably one of my 'favouritist' ones to date, and love the composition.
    having said all that, i have to admit i dislike the overpowering smell of these flowers. r.

  2. Dramatic, theatrical, minimal, poetic, elegant...
    Perfect, perfect, perfect...
    The flowers are like classical dancers on a scene. A strong piece Paul!
