This painting is a rich brown and has actual petals from the apricot tree in my backyard. I love how it came out. The colors are so powerful. I can lose myself in this painting for hours. I see something new every time. I think that it would make a perfect present for a wedding or a bridal shower.

Calla Lily from Mexico

Art inspired by life
Supplies Used: Pre-made canvas, acrylic paint
Dimensions: 16X20 inches


This painting was painted from this photograph that I took in San Miguelle, Mexico. It was December which made the colors, the people, and the vegetation feel so vibrant. It is a beautiful little town located in the center of Mexico (a few hours north of Mexico City). It has an enchanting jardin with cobblestone streets radiating from its buzzing center. A home to many expatriates it has a very interesting blend of different people with colorful stories to tell. The painting captured a moment in time that was still and this calla lily was lit up by an overhead light. Viewing it takes me back to Mexico and the tranquility that could be found moments from the energetic streets just behind the wall to the outdoor gardens that most homes tended.
