This afternoon finds me painting in my flowers - in between the many garden tasks! I have been told this variety of lily is very old - pre-civil war, in fact. I have them everywhere, and have only seen them in another old property - the home of Amelia Earhart in Atchison, Kansas. Very full and vibrant, the butterflies love them - and this cloudless sulphur danced among them today. With only a tiny painting window, I am painting small today, 3x4, and the texture is very rough. A bit of a challenge on a small piece, to be sure. The very best part of this size is that I am quickly done! Painting number 5096 in 5096 days.
