Daylily Study IV 2010

Dear Everyone:

Looked at my photoreference
of a yellow day-lily shot from
a side angle.

Didn't want to paint an exact
replica but just an impression.

Was inspired by an interior
in the September issue of
Canadian House and Home
of a condo in Vancouver
decorated by Tamara Wouters
of the store Peridot for
the store owner.

The interior combined
the washed out colours
of a beach think driftwood
with glamour think a gilt
Moroccan light fixture and
avocado green embroidered
sari pillows in the
master bedroom (shown)
with a faux fur throw tossed
in for good measure.

In the folk art painting
I incorporated the yellow
of my photograph with
gold paint and touches
of green and aqua on
an ivory flower-very glam.

I hope that you enjoy
this image.

Helen.
