New work in progress...

Here is my most recent piece that I am currently working on. I was drawn to a Calla Lily one morning just after the rain and started taking photos of them, then I noticed that they had aphids on them. Since my last piece had aphids on it as well, I had been researching them (the aphids) and have become quite fascinated with them. So that is what got me into making this piece, now however, I have been researching Calla Lilies and finding out interesting facts that have been drawing me further into the piece.

The painting is 4ft X 5ft
