Water Lily

[Jill Davis]

Originally posted in Eager to Learn, but Mr Al said I should post it here. So I worked on it a little more and toned down some hot spots on the petals. Converted to B&W in CNX and hand painted back in the color.

comments and critiques are welcome and appreciated.

Good for you, my beloved daughter in law!!!!!
It;s so relaxing to do hand painting, isn't it?

Don't teach H, though ;)

Ah, Jill, I see you made it over to the dark side! I just saw this in ETL and was hoping you'd move it over! That yellow lily is so luscious! Did you do any other versions of this? Maybe let a little of the water's color back in? Play around with the lily pads at all? It a beautiful take on a water lily.

And welcome to OOTB!
