lily of the valley by summerfield

lily of the valley

this is one of my most favourite flowers. i gather them in may and their scent lasts at least a couple of months after they have dried. they do drink a lot of water though. these are the ones i gathered on saturday and yesterday.

i have old photos of this flower from nine years ago and i decided to paint a combination of two photos. i couldn't quite get the texture of the leaves. the flowers themselves surprisingly are a lot easier to paint than the other flowers i've painted considering the models were so tiny.
So very pretty and the scent at your place must be heavenly.

Your painting is fantastic and I like this composition with the real flowers beside it! Kind of like and old masters shot!

Next to Daffodils- also my favorite flower- and my birth flower. The painting is so pretty!

Wow, what a beautiful painting. Love the scent of Lily of the Valley. Very seldom see them in South Africa, our weather doesn't suit them
