Hippeastrum Lily and Otto Dix

Another Wednesday Project...

Since Philip (my husband) started to raise honey bees, his interest in growing flowers on our property has been a great for my painting subjects. I really love painting still lifes, the subject doesn't move... except that flowers do!

This lovely Hippeastrum was picked outside the kitchen, and was taken on a trip to Kerrie's studio. I love flowers that are sculptural and have a defined structure.

Some of Kerrie's old postcards were on the table and my favourite Otto Dix work ended up providing a nice balance to my simple set up.
