It probably relates to my meyers-briggs score. I am a process person and seeing the lilies in process is something that looks right to me, plus I can get an inkling on how you do that!

This is the kind of pre-planning I rarely indulge in!<BR/>I find my ideas for subjects have greatly expanded since I've been looking at daily painters' blogs--the variety is amazing, as is what the artists do with their subject!<BR/><BR/>I love orange, Ruth, and I was pleased with the colors in this, as sometimes mixing oranges can lead to a dullish color. I actually bought these lilies--couldn't resist the color! Mine are still a couple of weeks from blooming: something to look forward to!<BR/><BR/>Hi Shicat. Lilies are such fun to paint and draw--the shapes, the colors! For these, I used mixes of aureolin, new gamboge, perinone orange, vermilion, and some carmine or quinacridone pink for the darker parts. I work wet on dry, mostly. For the leaves, I painted wet on dry, then dropped some clear water on top to break up the smoothness of the wash a bit. Lilies in wet-on-wet sounds like a good idea though--I may try it!laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999450626008299190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33679874.post-432668612537725822008-05-26T09:02:00.000-04:002008-05-26T09:02:00.000-04:00So funny, I have been working from photos of my ga...So funny, I have been working from photos of my garden lillies from last summer.
