The lily pond.

I was, in a way, inspired by Monet.  But, No…..

Monet never created nor painted quite like this. Showing the dark and the shadowed side of nature.

His lilies, lily ponds, his fields, his canvases were more Dreamscapes. Filled with the sunnier, brighter side of day.

 

It is admittedly, the approach I too generally follow.

 

That’s not the path this subject wanted to follow.

It  spoke of a different message altogether.

I sighed, and went along with it.

 

Artists really are   “co creators”   for the subjects themselves,   reveal how they want to be portrayed.

Lily Pond

 

 

 

Silence splatters down

like rain

 

tear stains of scarlet

upon the quiet

 

little lily pads

now stained

 

remaining silent

they listen

 

listening

and waiting

 

 

 

until

silence’s echoes

are washed away

The act of creation, in any media is a fascinating and magical process. I simply love to create. Expressing in color, line, tone, texture - as if, they were words upon a page. Creating a uniquely me, interpretation. Enjoy More of my "one-of-a-kind" expressive art at society6.com/debiriley and, redbubble.com/people/debijriley/shop

    1. thanks, it does give off the Autumn vibe feeling Anneli. I thought it would be good, to have two images of differing ‘moods’ – as I do talk often about moods, feeling, etc… in art 🙂 LOL thank you!!!

  3. You would have enjoyed the Monet exhibition that’s just about to close at the Vancouver Art Gallery. He would have loved your lily pads 🙂
