easter lily

(14x20)
I bought an Easter lily yesterday, as I do each year; I love their trumpet-shaped flowers and the way the leaves spiral out around the stem.
Painted this this morning on hot press paper, putting down the colors and then (for the most part; the flower's an exception) not going back in, as hot press seems to be very unforgiving.
