Lilies for Lian


Lilies for Lian

This is a vivid acrylic 11.5x12inch painting of random huge Lily blooms.

I was so inspired and impressed when I saw a painting by Lian Quan Zhen where he had painted lilies in a photographic demonstration and painted all the foliage in nutmeg, butternut squash, black and brown (my colors). It was most beautiful and very cool. There was something about that style that was classic and true to form but then that unexpected twist. Painting the stems and leaves black, brown, and gold gave this lovely piece a fresh funky feel that was most appealing and attractive.

Lian Qaun Zhen teaches Chinese and watercolor painting workshops, which I would very much like to take part in. To see his work and learn more about this artist and his work just follow the link below.
