Tiger Lily Plaque Twosome

Leave a comment

My first Tiger Lily Plaque was so well recieved, I happily revisited the concept.  Here I painted two bright orange Tiger Lilies in sharp focus against a clear blue sky! A honey bee is flying nearby.  The painting is based on photos I took on the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts over ten years ago.  This oval plaque is edged in metallic green and is approximately 11″ X 8″.  It delivers a  great punch!  It is available for sale at $75.  Please contact me through this site if you are interested in purchasing it.

Dragon Guardians Mural

I painted three large dragons on the bedroom walls of a ten year old boy who loves these mythical creatures.  His mother asked him to find his favorite dragons from books and from the internet, however she did not tell him why she wanted them.  I based my painting on the images he had chosen.   He returned from summer camp to find I had painted a mural on two of his walls while he was away.  Wow! He was so excited with his surprise when he came home!!  A real fun project for me!

Bright orange Tiger Lilies are painted in sharp focus against a clear blue sky!  I based this latest painting on a photo I took on the Bridge of Flowers in Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts over ten years ago.  Notice the last image which shows the flowers before I added their spots.  I almost stopped painting there, but I am glad I continued.   Yes there is a bug.  Can you find it? The small plaque is only 9″ X 7″ but delivers a  great punch!  This particular plaque has been sold, but if you are interested in commissioning something similar, please contact me through this site.
