Thirty Paintings in 30 Days - Day 7
Butchart Gardens Water Lillys
6" x 6" Acrylic on loose canvas
SOLD



The flowers at Butchart Gardens are always in season whether it is summer, fall, winter or spring.  We are fortunate to live so close to such a beautiful world class attraction.

Although I have a season's pass I don't get down there as often as I should.  Maybe during this year of 2014 that will be one of my goals.  The Water Lilly's are always stunning when they are in bloom, and here I was able to capture a couple of them along with the lilly pads.

I have been trying to get better photos of my paintings as I have not been happy with the results generally so far.  My camera has lots of adjustments and options but I think the problem might be that I am downsizing them too much (150 kb).  Most blogs, etc. can only handle up to 1 MB so I think this picture is about 650 kb.  On first impression it seems to be a bit better!

This is Day 7 - we're a quarter of the way through - only 23 more paintings to go in the challenge.  Hmmmm!
