"Lily and Marble" 10" x 10" Acrylic on wrapped canvas
I grow red day lilies for the pleasure of having them as subject matter. The day this one snapped off in a storm I brought her in and set her on a dinner napkin while I looked for a vase. She looked so cozy on the napkin that I brought a marble to add to the composition and photographed it.
The background lace pattern is textured with joint compound, then painted on when dry. I love to make up new techniques.
