Water Lilies III
This is one of three paintings I was commissioned to create for a large insurance brokerage. The original paintings are 32” x 32” and were done with my first son, who was two months old at the time, bouncing on my knee. See the Impressionist influence?

Of the three water lilies, this one took forever. I just couldn’t get what I was looking for. Then FINALLY it fell in place just before my commission deadline arrived.: >)

This is so very beautiful…
thepaintedsoul replied
Thanks izzybeth. Yes, maybe some art nouveau, too. Hadn’t thought of it. Cheers!
izzybeth
and yes I do see the influence. I might even call it a cross between Impressionism and edging toward Art Nouveau.
