A Light Yellow Lily Watercolor Painting I am Working on


I meant to take a picture of this before I got the background this dark... sorry I got carried away.
This lily is a pale yellow almost cream in spots, it is amazing how many different types of day lilies there are. I think that is why they are one of y favorite flowers (just in case you hadn't noticed) :) This one is 11x14". I will post more progress later.
