Sunday Sketches

Have you had the opportunity to smell a Stargazer lily?

What a treat! The fragrance is delightful.

I must add, the color of the Stargazer is magnificent.

I cannot resist the Stargazer; the subject of this week's sketch.

    Your painting is stunning...I love the colours, you've captured this lily completely...have to say I really don't like the smell of them...I always cut the stamens out.. :)
