Dream of Lily

Water lilies are one of my favor flowers. Its delicacy, beautiful shapes, and growing in the water always bring me a nice feeling when I see them. This purple lily caught my eyes when we were visiting Hualian in Taiwan in April 2009. It was easy for me to paint the flower, but it took me several revision to come up with the supporting background of leaves and water flow that I am happy with. Here you go the beautiful lilies.
