Artist's Comments

I was flicking through some art books that had several paintings by Arthur Rackham in it...I love the way he gave his paintings a golden, antique look and wanted to try the same. I remembered the beautiful Lilly of the Valley I saw by the river at Sissinghurst Castle blowing through the spring wind....

Hm.. die Brauntöne im Hintergrund lassen es verwirrenderweise herbstlicher wirken als es ist... trotzdem wunderschön ^^

Absolutely. My grandmother loved Lily of the Valley too, I think that is why is has such a special place among the flowers for me. Strangely enough, I've never created a piece using them ........ hmmmm ;) Your work is just so breathtaking!

Ya, stimmt schon, aber wenn du dir die Bilder von Arthur Rackham ansiehst, hat er auch immer in dunkel goldenen Tönen gearbeitet und das wollte ich hier auch....Lieben Dank! :blowkiss:
