Lotus Flower Canvas

I have had so much fun working on this commission for a friend!


The inspiration was a lotus flower, India, bright reds, pinks and golds, and a bit of sparkle!


I know it's hard to see, but the petals have pearly highlights, and the background is scattered with gold and red glitter... A lovely sparkle in the sun :)

      Thanks Ali! It's been brewing in the background for a while, so it was lovely to finally see it all finished :)

      Thank you! I really appreciate that :) I always carry my paintings over the edges of canvasses, I think it gives a much nicer finish.
