Electric Pink Lilies


 A new painting is fresh off the easel, "Electric Pink Lilies". 


From start to finish, this piece gave me quite a time, including one canvas that was swiftly thrown into the trash.


Then slowly, this happy pink lily painting started to take shape and told me that it really wanted to be finished.


Sometimes the creations that give us the hardest time, turn out to be the most rewarding.

Wow, this looks amazing! I love the background, how it's a blur of many different greens and purples. This looks awesome! PS: I have thrown so many paintings in the trash ;)
