Backlit Sacred Lotus

Oil on canvas on archival panel
16” x 20”
$1620

The light pink flower emerging off the spindly stem from the pads is surprisingly large, and when backlit, translucent and seems to glow. The seed pods have an interesting structure and coloration that just beg to be painted.

Inspired by the Lily Pools at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. And more about the lotus here.
