Daylilies

Daylilies, oil on gessobord, 6x6


This is one of my favorite times of summer in Louisville because daylilies are everywhere.  I particularly love the wild kind, that many refer to as "ditch lilies".  As I drive around I'm constantly tempted to pull the car over to take yet another picture of these beautiful large clumps of orange accent.  This painting is of one big bunch of lilies in my backyard. The photo was taken when the sun was high, the sky was clear, and the daylilies where throwing out massive fiery color.
