- Waterlilies -

Hannah-Boaden leírása

I have always been fond of nature, and the particular form of waterlilies is interesting in a dualistic sense. The lily pad occurs in an array of rich green through to red-drenched browns lying dense and heavy in its saturated state; juxtaposed to this are the flowers, the delicate lilies touched by a faint yellow that dissolves into sunlight thereby creating a union of light and dark. The painting itself was produced with a 'glazing' method in order to build up subtle layers upon the petals. This process can sometimes feel a bit tedious, but I feel it was worthwhile in creating one of my most delicate works.
