Description
This is an image of my oil painting on canvas of the from my Florals series. It features the richly-coloured red and pale yellow-green trimmed Oriental Lily intriguingly named 'Sheherazade'. Many people know the name Sheherazade (or Shahrazade) as the clever storyteller of the popular 1001 Nights (the Tales of the Arabian Nights). This striking lily was blooming in the Chicago Botanic Garden, Illinois, during the summer. The sunny backlighting that brings up the flower's colors to their most brilliant, and the upward point of view, give my subject a sense of the dramatic, much like the mood of the exciting 'framed' stories of the Arabian Nights.
Please note: the FAA watermark will not appear on the purchased print.
