Long Tall Calla
Artist
Mary Deal
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
An abstract oil painting of a single long tall Calla Lily bud. I saw a calla through a window and was not able to see the top. But the image stuck with me.
As I began painting this single calla lily, I realized I didn't remember what the background looked like. In fact, it had been muted. what remained was to choose a color for the background. I chose deep red which helped the green and white of the stem to stand out.
Once I finished this single flower painting, I realized I was not able to paint the full white flower. I'll be painting more calla lilies soon.
My paintings are mostly of flowers but I am attempting to branch out into other subjects too.

Thank you, Mary Beth. But I feel I've only just begun. Wait till you see what's coming down the line.
