Definitely a wonderful, loose feel rare for a still life. Great accomplishment!

These have a spiritual feel to them (which I can't explain), and I love the brushwork.

That is one of the most encouraging comments I've had in some time, Beverly!! Thank you!! Most of my paintings have a quiet spiritual theme if one has the eyes to see (or the painting has the skill to convey ;)

Thank you, Dominique. The concept was very abstract in it's nature--one I wish to continue to explore. you will note that is is very similar to my Common Threads figurative painting (the woman wearing red and holding a flower). for whatever reason they are a combination of shapes and eye path that fascinate me.

Very interesting painting, almost abstract in its conception, vibrating with colors!

Description:

Painting still lifes is a long tradition among oil painters throughout the centuries, providing needed practice with the luxury of controlled lighting and still subjects. Fresh flowers, however, particularly these Casablanca Lilies from my garden, have proved to not be very still after all. I found myself chasing the light on them and the life quickly ebbed from their blossoms. My faith reminded me to keep my heart still while my brush rushed wildly to capture this moment. Casablanca lilies are my favorite flowers and they are a symbol for celebration. No wonder they don't hold still! When my time it up here, I expect Casablanca lilies planted with my remains.~ Peace
